It's said there's no Light without Darkness and this feels universally true...Resonating everywhere in the natural world: day and night, Winter and Spring; the fecund dark matter of passed leave-ings – Falls - and the bright new promise of things just sprouting; beginning to grow.
Dark is essential,
Natural, the organic counterbalance of bright.
The new moon sky at midnight;
The inside of a mother's womb;
The mystery of unknowing;
Latency,
Gestation,
REST.
Dark is the crucial
Precursor
to wisdom, rebirth.. resurrection...
What dark is not, is the absence of Light.
Deep underground, in the depths of the earth, scientists have established an abundance of light particles, imperceptible to the naked eye.
So, in the sky at midnight, is starlight;
In uncertainty and mystery, the seed questions.
Embers of introspection,
Self inquiry sparks
New perceptions;
Rekindle flames.
It's said there's no Light without Darkness and I believe this to be self evident.
A fundamental Natural law.
But of the inference that there can be no good without evil, I'm not persuaded.
Since when does light equal virtue – or dark amount to wrong?
Dusk and dawn are a coupling of complements.. dancing
Good and evil is a dichotomy screaming to be resolved,
Demanding we pick a side –
Or at best, hold our middle ground
Between Sunlight and Shadow
Dark is not sinful and light can be less than kind... unsympathetic
It's what we do with the daybreak and twilight that Define
“Good and Evil” is a choice.
And it is my belief that evil reigns in those times and places where the fundamentally good majority choose to fearfully keep quiet;
look the other way.. not "rock the boat."
Just flourishes when people have the couRAGE to act and speak up, in Love.
There's no Light or Doubt about it, in my heart.
But here's a couple questions for you: Is evil the absence of Light? And what do you get in the absence of all Dark?
