Contradictions!

Our world is full of contradictions. Following few statements will throw some light on the subject:

1."Be satisfied with what you have got and thank god for all that he has given."
"Desire for more than what you have, else how will you grow as a person?"

2. "Always help others."
"God helps those who helps themselves."

3. "Accept yourself the way you are."
"Don't limit yourself, expect more from yourself."

4. "Don't take life so seriously. Enjoy and have fun."
"When will you start taking life seriously?"

Well, am sure there are more such statements and everyone comes across such paradoxes in life at one point in time.

Maybe these are not contradictions to some and are only two different school of thoughts, but to those individuals who partly believe in both the thought processes, these are nothing but Contradictions.

For believers of both the schools, the search for understanding 'life' begins with realizing both sides of contradictions. Life is complicated and there isn't just one right way of looking at things.

If there was, i would have never understood -'Giving charity versus my belief of everyone should work' or 'Freedom of speech versus cheap and loud shows like"Laughter Challenge on TV' or 'Indian spirit during Cricket match versus need for Vidarbh as a separate state'.
