Iam currently reading the auto-biography by Lance Armstrong - 'Its not about the Bike' and it is indeed striking to see how he grew up the ladder in his life. There are lots of learning in the book which Lance shares about his own life and his battle with the cancer. For anyone who is interested in knowing it, grab yourself one of the copy and go through it or else wait for me to finish the book and then write a review ;) (Iam not sure if i will have the patience to write this one ;P )
In one instance he says the above words "Black is Good.White is Bad." which is very thought-provoking. Its a universal law to equate White with Goodness and the Black with Bad,White with the Light,Black with the Dark,White with Harmony,Black with Discord etc. But when i came across his wordings, it showed White-Black in a completely new picture. Lance has contracted a cancer and while taking the X-Ray test, he sees his own Chest X-Ray. It is in this instance wherein he explains that in the X-Ray which is a photo negative:abnormalities come out in White. So as long as the X-Ray is black its good, meaning all the organs are perfect and no anomalies exist. But if anything is wrong with them,it is highlighted by the White color. So, somethings in life is not exactly as they seem to be.
Sometimes we just assume that things should be like this or things are like this because that's what has been told to us or that's what we know.But its also wise to understand that if we have the broad mindedness to accept things (which are beyond our understanding) it will not only hold us in good stead but also give us the flexibility to learn new thing and grow our-self.
