Today’s quote is a reminder of the importance of contrast in our lives. As much as we may all love to live in a world made up solely of rainbows and unicorns, where only wonderful things happen, that is really not our reality.

Life is full of highs and lows, peaks and valleys. However, it is due to these contrasts – and noting that low points will always return – that we ought to be able to appreciate the joys even more.

Further, and noting the cyclical nature of life and our experiences, hopefully, we can maintain some semblance of balance. Although we fully enjoy the highs, we also appreciate that we need to take the lows in our stride as well. In other words, we try to remain grounded regardless of the experience, and not allow ourselves to veer too extreme, be it mentally, emotionally or physically.

Coming to terms with the cycles of our life is one of the best gifts you can give yourself – and more so, your mental and emotional health.

 

 

Best wishes and have a great day!
