For every why there is a because and for every because there is a why and this cycle can be endless...I can usually stop it by analyzing the why, but some times things are so amazing that it is just to pleasurable to stop the why by analysis, and trust me, this is not easy as it is a big part of my being.) Some occurrences, happenings, incidents or behaviors I find to be enjoyable, just appreciating them for what they are. I’ve watched myself move, gradually over the years, from a person who was a total non-believer in random occurrences or events that did not have any precipitating factors, to, a person who is now willing to disregard such factors and just let things be. While I have not become a believer in Divine Intervention I have eased up on Predetermination.
A good friend of mine recently got married and I couldn’t be more happy for her. She had her dream wedding, she is happy with her husband and they are moving along in a positive direction. Now several years back this friend had been devastated by a broken relationship. One that was moving along nicely in the direction of engagement and marriage. She always sounded and seemed very happy when we spoke. Then, WHAM, out of nowhere, the guy breaks up with her and she was left with her world turned upside down and inside out. We talked many times and being the bright girl that she is, she did what was necessary to get through this incredibly rough time. Now here she is several years later, happily married to someone else.
In the past, such a situation was like honey to a bear for me. I would not have been able to resist analyzing every thing that transpired as well as personality factors and behaviors that might have led to this outcome. However, I did not do any of this and it was not that hard to resist. I have just sat back and enjoyed the way things worked out. I am finding great comfort in this new way. To experience things as they are can be less stressful. While I will never entirely give up analyzing behaviors and situations, this personal evolution does seem more balanced for me at this time.
Balance/Moderation the complements of Why/Because
