So today i had the ultimate realization about life. It changed my entire outlook on everything. I had to stop in the middle of my thoughts and write it all down, it was that intense to me.
Alright so I’ve always said my philosophy regarding life revolves around the idea of balance. I see everything in the world is made up of two equally important halves. Each half needs the other to exist as a whole, if one half didn’t exist, then said object would never fully bee. The balance is disturbed, because the other half is missing. In order to restore the balance, the other half needs to be replaced.
So, today I was thinking about my emotions, and how I have extreme mood swings. Manic episodes in between waves of depression. And then the idea popped into my head. Maybe that isn’t necessarily a terrible way to be. Maybe the reason so few people are ever truly happy, is because they focus all their time and energy on being happy. They want happiness so much, that they suppress and ignore all the negative emotions, but what if that’s the problem? What if in the attempt to rid ourselves of all negative emotions, we are upsetting the balance we need to exist as fulfilled individuals. What if we need both positive and negative emotions and experiences to truly be a whole human being. It’s like day without night, or the sun without the moon. Both are intertwined with each other.
