Circle of Life

Circle of Life

  • Everything around us exists in a very delicate balance of a complex network of interactions between us and our environment. When one creature dies, it gives life to another, so the energy is always conserved, and it only transforms from one form to another.

  • Our life resembles a complete circle. We all start at the end, and we end in the beginning. Covid-19 reminded us again that our actions affect each other.

  • Life might not make much sense right now, but eventually, all pieces will fall into place. It will make sense when you change your perspective and get a birds-eye view of the situation. Life happens unexpectedly, and it’s how you respond that matters because the best comes when you least expect them and are still ready for it. So be more tolerant, flexible, and accept the events that happen to you, whether desired or not. Everything happens for a reason.

But that’s just my take. Comment and share yours.
