Live a Life
On being asked about the
ups and downs of his career, movie star Kevin Costner responded with these words,
“I’m living a life.” I found this reply to be profound. Rather than spending his
days judging the events and
experiences of his life as either good or bad, he adopted a neutral stance and simply
decided to accept them for
what they are: a natural part of the path he is on.
We all travel different roads to our ultimate destinations. For some of us, the path is rockier than for
others. But no one reaches the end without facing some form of adversity. So
rather fight it, why not accept it as
the way of life? Why not detach yourself from the outcomes and simply experience
every circumstance that
enters your life to the fullest? Feel the pain and savor the happiness. If you have never visited the valleys, the
view from the mountaintop is not as breathtaking.
Remember, there are no real failures in life, only results.
There
are no true tragedies, only lessons. And there really are no problems, only
opportunities waiting to be
recognized as solutions by the person of wisdom.
