Perfect balance.
This celestial event has been of interest to humans since ancient times. We call this moment the equinox, to reflect the balance we see in our sky. It is a recognition of the equal parts of opposing forces we see all around us.
"Light a candle", wrote Ursula Le Guin, "and you cast a shadow." There is no light without dark.
Fall/Spring Equinox is a reminder for us to maintain our own balance as individuals. When we work on that we are able to help each other do the same for the human race, and the planet we all inhabit.
Without balance we are precariously perched.
“Let what happens happen. Everything must be equal in your eyes, good and evil, beautiful and ugly, foolish and wise.”
We can all use this time to deepen our personal commitment to equality and balance in everything we do.
If we were all to make such a commitment, everything else would take care of itself.
Poignant, and timely. Well done. Keep up the good work....and don't forget about throwing the monkey wrench in for some gleeful destruction every now and then...though I apologize for redundantly stating what you so obviously already know. Love Mike
