Roadside Oddity

So there's this guy on a unicycles and he's carrying three basketballs. No really this isn't a joke. Well to say he's carrying the basketballs is in fact not accurate. One he clutches to himself, one is lobbed in the air and the third is dribbled in front of him. An excellent busker trick you would think. But this is where it gets really weird. He is cruising down the bike path all by his lonesome.

My first thought was something along the lines of "What the Fuck....???" I might have in fact even said this out loud.

But the more I reflect on this apparition, the more I see in it a wonderful analogue for life. Aren't we all trying to keep our balance while simultaneously juggling in various ways? If we can, like this sorcerer, also move forward at a pretty good clip then I suspect we are doing something very right.
