Day by day, we live our lives and take our breaths.
We struggle, and we triumph.
Each new day arrives full of hope—
hope that, by dusk, may have faded.
But still, we continue.
We must continue.
For life is the ultimate pendulum.
The ultimate balance.
The brighter the light that shines upon us,
the longer the shadow it casts behind.
Each day is not an opportunity to win,
but a chance to slow the swing.
To stop fighting against the dark or chasing the light,
and instead—to embrace what is.
To live fully in each moment.
To release our labels of good and bad,
and simply be present with the breath we are taking.
Whatever you are experiencing is meant to be.
It has purpose.
It will guide you to what comes next.
No matter what you believe—
or what you believe in—
have faith in yourself.
Believe in who you are,
and more importantly,
in who you are becoming.
Every day is a swing of the pendulum.
But you are the fulcrum on which it pivots.
You are the center of both the light and the dark.
You are the hope.
You are the despair.
You are everything—to yourself.
And with that…
isn’t everything else just a bonus?
When you struggle, remember:
the swing will return.
Everything balances out.
Those who harm or hurt you
have their own pendulums to face.
Don’t focus on them.
Don’t focus on anything else.
Sit.
Breathe.
Feel.
Experience.
LIVE.
For this experience is yours to shape—
into the most beautiful adventure:
The Pendulum of Life.
