[@akimbanguehe3454]

But there is no perfect balance though. Flat line = death. Balance is an activity not a state. Due to the law of entropy (chaotic things randomly become orderly and given enough time they become chaotic again and then the cycle renews) You inevitably lose your balance no matter if you are a Lama or whatever. So you have to constantly force yourself to return in balance. Also it's fine to deviate a little as long as you compensate for it. Sometimes you just have to do the wrong thing for the right reason.

I remember years ago, a cartoon with a very similar storyline, I think I saw it on the Great Space Coaster, but instead of Spinollio, it was a doll that looked like a clown that some girl got for a present then lost in an alleyway, it then got picked up by a homeless guy to help him beg for money, then it also got a job, and years later was given a watch for retirement. Somehow the clown wound up in the same alleyway where the little girl now grown up found him and took him home. If anyone can identify that one, I would be greatly appreciative!
