Day 128 // A Polarized Life

 

Life is always a polarity. If there were no darkness there would be no light. If there were no trouble there could never be any peace. If the sun always shone you could not appreciate the moon.

You sometimes have to learn through conditions that seem to be a nuisance. One day you will look back and say, “We learned our best lessons not when the sun was shining, but when the storm was at its greatest, when the thunder roared, the lightning flashed, the clouds obscured the sun and all seemed dark and hopeless”. It is only when the soul is in adversity that some of its greatest possibilities can be realized.

Your best days don’t make you the person you are today. It’s a combination of those good days and reacting to bad days in the right ways.

And the best thing we can do is enjoy the ride.
