It’s not all bliss

We seek contentedness and satisfaction. But we weren’t built to remain there.

The longing, the desire, the loss, the pain, the struggle … we’re hard-wired to act in response to these. Not to lament them or avoid them, but to live more fully and more radiantly because of them.

We’re resilient by design.

And soon enough, we learn that light isn’t dimmed from shadows. Rather, its brilliance is better seen with the contrast.
