Is there really good in evil?
| They say there's good in evil and there's evil in good, is that correct? |
There’s good in evil and there’s evil in good, I always argued when people use this expression but I think I get it now and no matter how hard I try as a positive experiencer, I must admit that life was created on the platform of good and evil…
Earlier
yesterday I got a very bad news on a project I already invested resources –
emotions and time inclusive in, we were trying to get approval from the family
of a late musician to film a story of his time alive and the power of his
magical craft;
Of course the
family were asking for an outrageous amount of money when we were actually
doing them a favor. They managed to go behind us to inundate a filmmaking veteran
of our plans and considering his clout, he latched on it and the rest is
history.
Just as I was
mulling over the hurts, my phone started buzzing with reviews from the
International Women’s Day campaign we ran for Lush Hair, the views and
conversations it sparked was not only heartwarming, but also rewarding… I
digress.
I remember an
old friend that missed a flight because he had an accident just as he was about
to drive into the airport, his windshield was broken but nothing happened to
him personally, he was bitter he missed the flight and was cursing his luck
because he was going for a business meeting that had a time frame.
Few hours
later, we learned of a bomb explosion at the same axis he was to travel to,
lots of lives went with the incident and his could have been too. As he laid on
the hospital bed thinking of the potential business loss, it dawned on him that
it wasn’t actually his loss.
I have lots
of personal experiences to throw under this bridge, the goal is not to dwell
under the poor man’s consolation, but to actually realize and admit that some
things aren’t exactly the way we see them and the saying “all things work
together for good” isn’t actually “sakamanje”.
There are
times something would happen to me and in the process of nursing hurts, I’d
figure out that either something better happens or I get to realize why it
happened, maybe we just need to be a lot patient and things would begin to make
sense to us.
From your
feedback, looks like the shorter the better so I’ll no longer be doing too much
shalaye on this blog of course except I have to, and here’s me saying
thank you to everyone that reads, comments and shares my posts, not like y’all
owe me this.
So what is
that “good in evil” moment you have to share? I’d love to read from you and in
case you haven’t seen the Lush International Women’s day campaign, here’s the

The light always comes from the darkness. In my short years, it's a necessary evil that maintains balance.
