Black and White

What color is your life? Step into the reality and stop all the crap.

In the beautiful array of magical colors the world has surely given us, why would anyone want to just see things in black and white? Would it not be better for a person to look through rose-colored glasses? Wouldn’t one want to see the shades of pinks and reds? Wouldn’t it be better to focus on color? Well, sad to say, but I think life is much better viewed as black and white. I mean, it either is or isn’t, right? It's either good or not the way you want it (notice I didn’t say bad).

A person who gets clouded in color only can fall, seeing that life really is a black and white process, you either need to do it or not do it. There is not a middle ground here, no gray or pink or whatever color one chooses.

If you start to realize that, that life really is that basic, you will start to see the signs that will correctly put you on your own path. You will focus on the part you want to happen and all the time working on the part that is making you exist right now. So it is black and white, it is a neverending cycle of to-dos that one must complete before going onto the next chapter of their lives.

Now some would say that viewing the world as black and white would entail the theory that it's either good or evil, well I myself do not believe that. I believe a person who understands will walk the fine line in between good and that proverbial evil. When a person has the gift of perception, and I believe that everyone has it, they learn to balance and appreciate all, that means even the tiniest speck of clutter within their lives.

Now, what a person chooses to do with this is on them, for some will just sit on their hopes and dreams and let them slip on by, but they are the first to cry when things are not the way they wish. Those who choose to buck the system and take the easy way also will not succeed. Some often think they deserve the cheaters way but believe me it will catch back up to you.

Then there are those who cry and whine when something bad, or should I say, something they do not choose comes their way. Well, I hate to tell those that something could have been done to alter the outcome, and also that if one does not give thought to that which is bad it will not be attracted to you.

In life there are lessons, some could call them sins but I do not believe in sin. I believe that one is given obstacles to not hurdle but to go past and learn. In the world of black and white one can realize that anything and everything is attainable, that there is no gray in their world.

Learn to live in the reality of the black and white, learn to focus on that which you really want, don’t give thought to what you don’t, be successful and happy.
