To balance life.

Picture; From my watercolors.

From a different point of view, I finally realize that all I faced,
is a journey to a balanced life.
Tao said; All is good under the sun.
That is a non dualism point of view that will
give you balance in life.
A balanced life, will accept whatever happen, and
find the meaning behind it.
It's like receiving a gift.
A beautifully wrapped gift is a pleasure.
But that pleasure didn't make you a better person,
or changed your point of view, nor give you a better understanding,
you are the same old person,
who is looking for more beautiful gifts to make you happy.
An ugly wrapped gift is a misfortune,
a sadness, loosing, broken heart, sadness, things that you don't like.
First you are angry, struggle to avoid it,minimize it,
then after a period of struggling, you realize,
like it or not, you just have to endure it.
To endure it, you will try to find the meaning
behind it,
and that leads you to wisdom, patience, quietness,
and you'll learn acceptance, sacrifice,and compassion.
The ugly wrapped gifts will give you
a higher point of view of life.
Nobody likes the ugly wrapped gifts.
But they kept coming,
to balance your life,
to make you a better person.
*
When we are no longer able to change a situation,
we are forced to change ourselves.
*
Man will suffer anything,
as long as he can find the meaning behind it.
