I
used to think that life was a series of ups and downs, and it is, in the sense
that we experience highs and lows of emotion, but it's recently struck me that
life and what happens in it is just a series of events. It's not a case that ‘there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so’*, in fact, thinking only
ever brings greater uncertainty over the existence of black and white, moral
absolutes can be broken down when you factor in different perspectives and
rationale. For me, nothing is either good or bad but feeling makes it
so. It is our emotional response to situations that dictates whether we think
something is good or bad.
