Egg Box Life Lessons...

Why isn't life as easy to balance as an eggbox. Whenever I'm making egg related foodstuffs, I always, out of habit balance my egg box so that it is evenly weighted along it's horizontal axis.

This means that if you were to have a perfectly formed egg box with perfectly identical eggs and no additional outside forces, you could balance it on a knife edge.

No matter how many eggs, 1 to all 6, you can always configure them to be evely balanced across the egg box.

1 egg in the box is balanced in one of the middle cups.
2 eggs can go in the 2 middle ones or 2 of the outside adjacent ones.
3 eggs either as blipped here or vice versa.
etc, etc...

I guess you get the idea.

So if life is your egg box, whenever something new comes along, you just re-configure and get the right balance.
