For everything in this world, there is an explanation. And every such explanation is either logical or magical. Would you agree? I know some will say even magic has logic, haha, but that’s not the point I’m getting at. If a thing is within our grasp to understand we come up with a logical explanation and move along. And if it is beyond our comprehension ability, we simply call it magical or a miracle.
Don’t get me wrong, I do believe in both. But what I don’t understand is why we must find a reason behind everything. Sometimes we are so obsessed with the reason that we turn blindsight to the magic happening right under our noses.
I am also like that. I try to find answers to questions and I try to find a pattern for every puzzle. Might be good, might be bad. But one thing I firmly believe is that “Nothing should be extreme“. Balance is important. I’ve had experiences where I became too cautious and had my guard up so I would not get hurt but that only made me overlook the joy at the moment. That was the loss of being too logical.
This reminds me of a documentary I’ve seen long back. There the speaker told the audience how being vulnerable is important to find happiness and I couldn’t agree more. If we keep our hearts locked so the hurt couldn’t enter, happiness couldn’t enter either.
It is not possible to feel happiness without feeling pain, just like light and darkness. They are a package.
I might not be old enough to tell you this but in life, there are things that must be felt and there are things that must be thought. They are two different things. And that is what we call “Balance“.
When you don’t understand a thing, just say thank you for the good and pray to overcome the bad. Life throws many curveballs at you and when that happens you simply have to elude them and move on. If you sit and wonder “why it happened?” every time something happens, you will go nowhere.
Sometimes you need to take a leap of faith and at times, use your wits to survive in this jungle. Using only any one of your abilities only leaves you exhausted.
“Why did it happen?”
“What did I do?”
“What was my fault?”
“How can I change this?”
If you ask yourself these questions too many times, you will get even more confused. We think finding solutions only can help but sometimes letting go is the right way to get over a situation. We have spent far too much time of our lives finding reasons, now it’s time to feel.
So the point here is that do not take everything so seriously nor too lightly. This is a gentle reminder for you to remember that “Life, love, sincerity, kindness, and, success must be felt. Not to be thought.” That’s the best way to live life.
Lots of LOVE,
Nikki.
