A Double Bind

Life is full go contradictions and double binds. The thin line between being good and fine is not realistic. In essence, there are always clouds to the sunny day.
double bind is an emotionally distressing dilemma in communication in which an individual (or group) receives two or more conflicting messages, and one message negates the other.
Which leads me to my observation of the inability for some people to see contradictions as two realities that feed on one another to be able to exist. Hence, the denial of the "bad" is also a rejection of the right. This concept also reminds me of the endless possibilities in my mind and the freedom it allows when I break beyond the thick walls upheld by society when it comes to perceiving contradictions.
I can be sad and cry of happiness; I can love and hate at the same exact time, I can be dying of laughter and also crumbling inside of loneliness.  I can belong and be isolated simultaneously. But all these contradictions are not to be weighted or compared. Instead, they are equal by nature.
Life is a contradictory bumpy journey, and the moment you accept and embrace your "conflicting" emotions, you can use this energy to move forward and have confidence in who you are.
Till next time,
Ria
