Black and White

There is no such thing as black and white in life - no absolutes, only shades of grey. Even if you are surrounded by light, you will still have a shadow to deal with. We all relate a situation as good or bad compared to what we know or what we are told. Labeling circumstances with adjectives is self-created. The moment, we accept things for how they are, people just the way they are, life starts to communicate with you.




For instance, we always tend to compare a situation or person to our experience in past. Embellishing the truth distorts it and a simple experience is spiced up by our imagination into something it is not. We end up suffering for something that just does not exist. If that is not sadistic then what is?



Try and experience people and situations without any tinted glasses, without any judging, just how it is. There will always be some people whose dark side will be predominantly evident than others, there will always be some situations that are less comfortable and pleasant. The key is to embrace each emotion, every experience for what is.
