Cycle of Life’s Sweetness and Pain

Amidst all my activities and lack of time to keep up with regular updates on my blog I try to at least once every year write a piece just to capture some of my feelings and share them with anyone who feels like reading.

I like to use my experiences as a touch point to inspire anyone who might be interested in my point of view on life.

It’s amazing how life serves us with different dimensions of feelings and it’s even more amazing how we as humans never get to understand and celebrate life – pretty complex isn’t it?

The Cycle of Life’s sweetness and pain is something I coined out of my2011; both from personal experiences and experiences of others close to me. This Cycle is present in our everyday lives in different aspects. It is the way life spins around us and drops off things that make us both happy and at the same time bring us pain.

Imagine that one of the most beautiful and systematic creations of life is procreation; look at the process of mating (sweet), the pain of pregnancy and child bearing (painful process) and ultimately the sweetness of raising your own child (sweet). Isn’t that interesting?

In another view It is the way we celebrate the things that make us happy and the way we cry about the things that make us unhappy – some of us are only able to be in our fullest when life is sweet and in this time we channel our energy where it most benefits us but when things are opposite; when we are in a down state of mind we tend to express very low energy and our demand for a complementary energy sources to sustain us increases.

The notion of always expecting the ideals and always forgetting the reality doesn’t always end well, because reality mostly always wins.

It doesn’t take an extra eye to see that all human beings are selfish and in every situation thinks of them self either first or last because there is always a self fulfillment somewhere in the process undermining what that means.

Life is beautiful and we humans are beautiful. Life has a way of taking care of us and giving us what we want and showing us who we are, showing us where to go, undermining what society has made us think we are. Life has very interesting ways of showing us where we have been lost and helping us find ourselves.

We cannot undermine all of these and not celebrate life. At any point of the cycle you find yourself, celebrate life because it’s a constantly changing cycle. Just open your eyes and watch out.

As you go into the New Year my simple message to you is. Free yourself and celebrate life, respect your life and respect those of others.

I wish you a much more celebrated life in 2012.
