"Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. 
It is far better to take things 
as they come along 
with patience and equanimity."
                                          ~ Carl Jung
 

As Carl Jung advises, let's try to accept life's highs and lows in a neutral way. Instead of judging the range of our emotions and events as good or bad, we can shift our perspective and see them like musical high notes and low notes that become the songs and symphonies of our lives. May this perspective soften our stress, lessen our frustrations, and increase our peace and joy.

With love,
