There is Gray!
Not everything needs to be perfect. Its beautiful here in this space where there are shades of gray. We can choose to see the world in gray. My father challenged to me 13 years ago and said, “Nicole, look for the gray.”
A healthy person has the ability to see the full spectrum of color and variations. If the rigidity of your thinking is at the high-end of perfectionism, perhaps you are missing out on a large portion of beauty in this life.
Much of life takes place in the gray areas. Most experiences in life are not all good or all bad, but somewhere in between.
Build a practice of seeing different shades and see how your thoughts become transformed.
