No matter how bad it hurts, your emotions are changeable. No matter how impossible the situation seems, your doubt can be reversed. Remember, doubt needs faith in order to exist; therefore, it’s totally flexible. No matter how desperately you cling to something, to someone, or to a desired outcome, the tightness of your grip can be loosened – it too, can be changed. It’s amazing how much you can actually change when you can see both sides!
If it’s changeable, then it’s subject to scrutiny. So what is changeless? Your pure, unaffected awareness is changeless. Your capacity to know the difference between good and bad – your inner being is changeless.
What seems like a duality is only a reminder. For example, disturbance exists only as a reminder of peace. Sadness exists only as a reminder of happiness, and so on. Furthermore, what is changeable helps remind us of what is changeless. On the other side of pain is sweet relief. All you have to do is change it, to flip it around, and to see what’s waiting underneath each perceived, negative situation. That which can see both sides, positive and negative, is the miracle of who you are. But there’s one more step. If you can see both sides, then you can choose to align yourself with the ally, not to fear or to confront the enemy. You can see both sides of reality’s equation, but ultimately it’s your choice to stand with one or another. Use your ability to see both sides as your superpower. It takes time to learn what is changeable and what is not. Join heirs with the bright side more often, more quickly, and more willingly, and your world will be constantly moving from darkness into light. And moving towards the light is always the right direction. Try to stay on course each and every day.
