I was in Brussels watching Amaluna by the Cirque Du Soleil and it was hold-your-breath-taking!!! The work that goes into that is tremendous, it really is!
From a viewer's perspective it can be easy to judge and think 'like that, didn't like that, that's not impressive.' And to some degree, 'oh that doesn't look too hard!' But I can only imagine the years and years spent training to be able to achieve the feats that they did.
Same in life- whether it's celebrities, singers, spiritual teachers, it can be easy to judge and dismiss their skills and talents or just think 'Oh well, they have it easy!' But odds are, a lot of work, time and life experience goes into making them look effortless.
In Justin Timberlake's Masterclass with Oprah, I believe someone said to him something like 'I hate you, it's so easy what you do!' To which he thought 'OMG, it is like the hardest thing to do, it's just with all the training and hard work, it's that which makes it looks effortless!
So, you never really know what's going on with someone, so don't be so quick to judge or dismiss them. Just appreciate all that goes on. Have a bit of empathy for your fellow human!
There is so much to appreciate everywhere you look!
All is well!
Happy cirque-ing!!!
Lots of love, Nick Xxx
