The heartbeat, breathing and tides are events made by several moments that are alternated rhythmically, by passing the baton. The same act of living is simply a succession of cycles, but why does the phases alternation change depending on what and how we are looking at it?
It is crystal clear that the seasons alternate during the year. After the cold arrives milder climates and the leaves fall in order to allow new life to sprout. Then, why do we not consider and greet all our life moments in the same way, even those in which not everything goes as we would like (or imagined) without committing ourselves to accept them as something completely natural?
Just as there’s no season more important than another, or anything useless in nature, why shouldn’t we live our life in harmony with the differences that different phases bring with them? Each stage prepares and sows the seeds in order to create the next one, thriving until it reaches the end of its cycle ready to give way to a new present.
The secret is based on the change of perspective by freeing ourselves from any kind of judgment. It is realizing that only intentionally living each moment allows us to truly live. Let’s stop giving attention to what we are missing, by starting enjoying every single moment because darkness is not the absence of light, and emptiness is not lack of content. Being inside a void is as amazing as experiencing the full, and practicing both is an art and a constant exercise.
Doing it can help us to love the stages alternation and to smile at the beauty that relies on difference.
