A little less than three years ago I was telling a friend of mine my vision for living a life filled with rainbows and butterflies. In other words, a life filled with beauty, harmony, rhythm, peace, kindness and love.
Thought of the Day: Could such a life exist? Or are we destined to encounter a life filled with obstacles and great difficulties?
I don't think a life of Rainbows and Butterflies exists.
ReplyDeleteAnd honestly, if it did, I would not want to be a part of it. Lately I've been feeling like there are only mountaintops because of the valleys below them. And coincidently, I just read in a Dalai Lama book:
"When there is a long, there has to be short. They do not exist through their own nature."
I feel like people need to cherish the non-rainbow moments in order to truly appreciate the full awesomeness of Rainbows!
