Opposites in Life

Lately, I have been thinking, everything in life has its own opposite quality or being. And because of this, life is balanced.

The two things balance each other so that not one can dominate the other. Sadness and happiness, these two are the best example.

In life, there are ups and downs; there are times when you will be happy and there are times when you will be sad.

And that's normal, it happens. You cannot be sad all the time nor can you be so happy all the time either. One cannot have too much of one thing.

So, the question is whether it is one or the other? Personally, I would much prefer the positives more. Why? Simply because, they give out a positive energy and it shows good effects not only to the people around you but to you as well.

It is much like smiling. I would rather smile than frown because less muscles are needed to smile than to frown, thus, reducing the chances of wrinkling on my face. The same thing goes for love and everything else. Your chest feels a lot at ease when you love. So, loving is a lot better.

"Our mind is capable of passing beyond the dividing line we have drawn for it. Beyond the pairs of opposites of which the world consists, other, new insights begin."
