Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration
The focus for today is: I recognize that opposites are part of the balance of life.
Some days, we might be super active, while other days we may be super relaxed or "lazy". Some days we are cheerful and outgoing, while other days we are quiet and reflective. None of these are good or bad, they are simply part of the balance of life.
If we look at opposites in Nature -- night and day, rain and sunshine, high tide and low tide -- we see that they are not good or bad, they balance each other out. In the same way, if we were constantly "on the go" we would never get the chance to rest, and rest is needed as well as action.
So the next time you find yourself judging yourself, or judging others, for an extreme of some kind, stop and try to see how that behavior is simply the other end of the scale for another behavior. Rather than seeing it as bad or wrong, we can instead see it as part of the cycle of life. Balance is sought after, and sometimes it takes bouncing back and forth between opposites until we discover where harmony resides for us.
Today's Daily Inspiration is excerpted from the InnerSelf.com article:
