The Yin and Yang of Good and Bad

So take what you don’t like, or think of the extra dollars going into your gas tank, or the griping about President Bush, or whatever problems or negativity you have experienced as the necessary impetus for change. Change into what you DO want and what you DO wish to make real. This wouldn’t be the first time things had to “go to hell in a handbasket” in order for people to wake up out of their media-and-materialism-induced comas. If you feel sad, frustrated, or outraged, rejoice! You’re no longer an anesthetized blob comfort-wrapped in your own security. And this is good why, you ask? Because unlike the coma state, now you know you’re alive.

Be grateful you’ve been given such abundant opportunity to witness, and live, in times of confusion, misdirection, and suffering. Because confusion precedes clarity and sharpens your vision. And because—as the universe designed it—the opposite will come. The dancing shift of polarities will go on. And judging by the intensity of this recent downslide, even if we’re not at the end, when the upside comes about it is going to be pretty darn amazing.

Hang in there; you don’t want to miss it.
