Ups and Downs

“If there are no ups and downs in your life, it means you are dead.”

–Anonymous

It’s so easy for us to get down on ourselves when life is fluctuating.  Maybe last month you were flying high and dreaming big, and now your dream is being beat down or pushed aside by so many other things.  Is something wrong with you?  NOPE.  Balance is not about finding a static equilibrium…. It’s about rhythm.  If you’re experiencing ups and downs, that means you are LIVING!

Question: what fluctuations in your recent life can you re-frame and rejoice in today?

 

Note: Today’s #ThoughtfulThursday comes from a project called Consider This Thought.  You can see more of these hand-doodled posters at http://considerthisthought.tumblr.com
