There are two sides to everything. There is always a flip side of the coin.
The buttered side of the toast… the sunny side of the egg… the B-side of the album.
One is not necessarily better than the other. Just different.
Some people say that “we can only see what we believe and nothing else is possible.”
It is also purported that “we shouldn’t believe every thing we think.”
Both of these things are hard to accept sometimes… for me especially. In our own minds… we ALL think we are right. Well… we can’t ALL be correct.. ALL the time.
And none of us are perfect.
So there must be some truth in those two previous statements… about our thoughts, and what we believe . Somehow.
I think when we come to accept those two assertions.. even on the slightest level…. we are on our way to becoming more compassionate, and more understanding.
We open our mind to other possibilities. We learn. We grow.
So. Thank goodness for the bottom of the boat… the dark side of the moon… the inside of the Oreo cookie.
A different side… a different perspective… for everything.
