I have friends that are wiccan, or eastern religions, or new age type people... and they talk about living life in a balance, but I can't get an explanation of what t his means.

I'm not talking about Christianity here. Does a little bit of everything include murder , rape, etc? What are you balancing?

From a Buddhist perspective it means not too much clinging and attachment to things you think will bring you happiness and not too much aversion to the things you think are inherently "bad".
From an ex-Wiccan perspective, I'd say it means that you live within your means and with good stewardship of the environment, and from a Shamanistic pov not taking more from the Earth than you need. Not too much of one thing and not enough of the other. A middle way...

Walking the razors edge. Although I lean to the left. For more info. you may want to read the book. The Razors Edge, I forget the authors name but it's well worth a read.

It is like saying do all things in moderation.
That helps to achieve balance in your life.
We need to focus on God, family, work, community, and country, and not just on one of these like work.
Many focus all their time and attention on work.

The Holy Bible tells us in the Scriptures, everything in moderation.
Hope that helps!

You have to ignore all religions equally.
