FAMILY LOVE EQUILIBRIUM

FAMILY. LOVE. EQUILIBRIUM
A pivotal point In this transformational journey
Life is all about family and love.
Art of seeing both sides ~ An invitation of dance
“The Way of the Tao” is neither:
pleasure or pain
disconsonant or resolution
positive or negative
praise or blame
forgive or condemn
evolution or extinction
win or lose
benefit or obstacle
infatuation or resentment
kindness or cruelty
Life is all about family and love - equanimity
Every external event mirrors an internal aspect of oneself
Neutralize polarities of elevate or diminish oneself
There are no mistakes
I am honored to experience:
‘lack of attention’
‘Sacrifice of the lamp’
‘Abandoned child’
These events serve to teach me to grow in love
See the seer, the process of seeing, and the seen are all identical
Life is all about family and love.
No one is exempt from the twists and turns of fate
‘Silent voice in a small Pacific island’
‘A blissful life in The Land of the Free at age of 14’
‘Complete Independence in The Land of Opportunity since 1992’
Perception shapes reality
Embracing dualities
Life is all about family and love – equilibrium.

Dear Sierra, your reflection on family, love, and equilibrium is profoundly insightful. I loved the way you intertwine the concepts of the Tao and personal experience creates wisdom and introspection. Your words invite to embrace the dualities of life, to see beyond the polarities and find balance in all things. I also liked the acknowledgment of both external events and internal growth is a testament to your deep understanding of the interconnectedness of life. This is a beautiful reflection. - Blessings, Daniel
