Balance Yin and Yang



Yin and yang, light and dark, hot and cold, fast and slow, high and low, fire and water, soft and hard, sun and moon, life and death and so on..


Somewhere in this big soup of everything we have to find a balance. We have to find love.
And don't get me wrong here. When I'm talking about love I usually focus on the bright side of it, because it is so much more fun. BUT there is no love where there's no truth or knowledge. The worlds truth today has a lot of darkness as well. To find and fight for love we can not ignore everything that's wrong in this world. We have to acknowledge the dark side too, that a lot of people look away from. It's like a blind spot that we all need to work on. I'm not the biggest fan, for example  watching the news.. It's extremely negative and boring.. But I shouldn't look away from it and pretend that it doesn't happen, even if a lot of what shows on the news only are from one perspective, the raw information is still factual. Be critical, because everything in the media, your teachers, your parents, your friends, the newspaper and society dictates is not always right. Stop being lazy and dont accept it to control you. When we were kids we had great imaginations, where did it go? How can we let for example the government take it away for us? It's time to wake up! We all have been asleep for to long. The more we are objective with ourselves and work with raising our awareness, the more we see things as they are. The higher the degree of love we can access.
Take a step outside the box, I know it's hard, because you are probably thinking to yourself "why? I'm comfortable here, I'm happy here, I get money, why would I do something else, it might be scary, I don't want to make a mistake, You Greta, you are weird man.. Greta, stop it you are crazy"

My boyfriend and I was talking about this the other day;
Imagine for a second someone raised in a cupboard, being kept in the dark and having every aspect of their lives dictated by their guardian, they had no idea of what was outside it, so in their ignorance they would be happy and comfortable in there. Because that's all of what they know of and all that they have. Are you getting what I'm saying here? "People accept the realities of which they are given" Take a step.

If we really want the shifting concensiness we need to start with ourself, look yourself in the mirror, work with yourself to see yourself as you truly are and than work with what's around you and see that what it's truly are. Without ignoring the things that don't always look to pretty.. 


It's a big, big soup we got here. With tiny tiny people with big big egos.. BUT I believe we have a BIGGER heart. Please don't be afraid to show it. The time is now. 


An ideal is merely an escape, an avoidance of what is, a contridiction of what is. An ideal prevent direct action upon what it. To have peace we will have to love,we will have to begin not to live n ideal life but to see things as they are and act upon them, transform them". - J.Krishnamrti
