About two years ago, #triatholon goddess @caitalexander wrote a beautiful post about the ying and yang of life. I still think about it to this day. 🔲 In the last two weeks, I have been reminded of this. 🔳 I’ve experienced the joy of life and the sadness of death in the family. And all the career success in the world means nothing when you are laying on a hospital bed worried about your own life and the life of your unborn child. And the highs and lows of opening your heart and loving another person. Both the pains and love/support that friends and family can bring to your life and how brittle some relationships can be. Professionally, I help people navigate nuptial unions and the devastation of #divorce and separation. Physically, I have felt in the past week how perfectly amazing and strong the human body can be while days later never feeling so weak as I try to restart #BBG @kayla_itsines @sweat (pretraining program). ⚫️⚪️ The lows make us appreciate the highs. The bad makes us appreciate the good. Hate makes us crave love. Dependency drives Independnece. Weakness makes us appreciate strength. And death reminds us how precious life really is. 🔘 Sometimes I wish life could just have the good without the bad, but I know that is part of the balance of the universe...
