Appreciating The Positives & Negatives

Good day everyone, today's quote: "Every positive value has its price in negative terms... the genius of Einstein leads to Hiroshima. " Pablo Piccaso

This quote is all about maintaining balance and also, I think, how that balance is necessary for us to be able to determine the value of the world in which we inhabit. It is this balances that teaches us how to  appreciate, how to be grateful. For instance, without knowing the anger and feelings of hate, we would not be able to truly appreciate the value of love in our lives.  Without knowing pain, pleasure would not be that ultimate feeling we strive to recreate in the activities we do or the company we keep and without the experience of death, we would have no appreciation for life.  As the saying goes, there are two sides to every coin, a ying for every yang and the ever present vision of the scales balancing themselves which remind us that there is an opposite to everything and that those opposites are there to help us learn, grow and be grateful. Yes, life is all about the positives and negatives of our existence. How we choose to view those things is up to each one of us but I hope that everyone will take this lesson to heart the next time something unwanted comes into their lives. Just remember, it is there so that you can be grateful and appreciative when it's opposite blesses you.
Namaste...may you walk in balance.
