Life: A Journey of Opposites

I have learned another lesson in life. To get to a certain place, we have to go the opposite way. To go up, head downwards. To go forward, take a few steps backwards. To be rich, be willing to live poor for a time. To gain love, give it more. To bring someone closer, move back a little from them.
Its like the law of opposite charges attracting. Or plus and minus equals plus.
Which is why discipline is absolutely essential. So as of today, I am learning discipline. Heading the other way to achieve my goal.
And when u really think about it, it is the opposites of life that give it its full meaning. Heaven wouldnt hold much appeal if we didnt know hell. If you have never been sad, happiness would just be nothing. It takes love, to hate a person. And its loss that makes u appreciative of gain.
This is a lil philosophical, and I dont like getting too philosophical in my blog. Its just a story telling medium..and a quasi-chronicle. So lemme get back to living. And learning. And sharing. Peace out
