Contrasts

Nothing exists in itself.   -Herman Melville

Without the gray of the rock, we can't really appreciate the color of the flower. 

Without the rock's impenetrable hardness, we don't know how delicate the flower is. 

Judge less the things you don't understand and let them show you greater beauty in what you do understand.

  1. Not judging but I don't understand why some people are dealt really bad deals and some are born like they are charmed?

    1. Hi,
      So many of us ask the same question. But realize that the question comes from observing opposites and concluding something that is only an appearance.

      This is a mental world. We build our life with constant attention to thought, no matter how difficult the circumstances around us.

      Only look at what you want and in time, you will have that charmed life from out of nowhere.

      PS-- the circumstances are really exercises in learning how to master our life. Embrace them as also charmed. XO
