(Video) Many Things Are True at Once
Ever find yourself feeling sad, betrayed or angry and notice these feelings beginning to eclipse your entire existence (at least for the moment)?! Being human is messy, exhausting, beautiful and at times–incredibly hard. Fortunately, we’re complex, multi-dimensional beings who have the capacity to feel extremes–joy and sadness, anger and hope–all at the same time!
This week I offer up the reminder that “many things are true at once.” I invite you to check out my video below.
Yesterday I had the opportunity to work-out at Looking Glass Waterfall. I loved soaking in the wild, dynamic gush of water contrasted against the steady, unchanging, ancient rock wall. Polarities are everywhere: many things are true at once.
Want more? Read about Polarities and carve out 5 minutes today for an exercise focused on this theme. “Nothing is either good or bad but thinking makes it so.” Shakespeare. Let me know how you’re doing. I’d love to hear from you!
