In life every reality has an opposit reality

After a storm comes the calm, after the summer follows the rainy season. The beautiful face has black hair at the back ...and so on. Life is mad up of ups and down. There is ascendant and there is descendant process. Life reminds me of the "snake and the ladder" game. Yes in prosperity man forgets his roots and in his tears he remembers the glorious past and feels homesick. The heart stir can be so acute to render man sentimental. At time the circumstances themselves do not allow us to be balanced. So one needs to bear the consequences with patients and render his life more up dated

If life was a plain white sheet of paper, no opposites, no consiquences, no Karma, would we not then sit and deam our exsistance a matter of being and not of living? There would be no calm after your storm, the sweet smell of freshness that follows the down pour, or summer that follows your rainy season, the warmth of rays on your skin. It is a matter of that classic question of views, is your cup half full or half empty?

One may answer in either way say half empty or half full. But expressions require a healthy and genuine response

WELL, great inspiration for life. I knew all about these too, but sometimes, I want to be calm, and focus on something. There is always things come up, and I couldn't control it.

Yes in quietude the wisdom sprays its light.In calm the mind can become still, thoughtless and void but there dandle upon the surface of awareness the deep sense with new meaning

There is a peak and valley to everything in life. There will always be an up and a down, a plus and a minus to everything life throws our way. If we dig deep enough we will always find a little darkness along with the light. This is the reality of life.

Yet man has been invited to cut a right balance between joys and sorrows. The saints have attained that total liberty of freedom from ups and downs of life in spite of undergoing their causes and effects.

That's very interesting. Opposites. I wonder if they're at all unified in some ways of thinking. Like everything is life or something. Or to see things through the lense of love. So that would mean extracting the love parts out of things that are less than pleasing to the senses.
