Now Light, Now Dark



Without the darkness - there is no awareness of light.
Without the light - there is no awareness of darkness.

In the flickering of the flame, in the delicate filament of the bulb is the light that is also the dark, the dark that is also the light.

I shall never understand this mystery.
Light and dark are somehow the same.
I want not to prefer one over the other but to appreciate their unique and simultaneous truth.

Now light, now dark.
The switch turns, the wick catches fire. In that split second dark and light are one as is everything in the universe.
Every moment we live in split-second reality as unique and simultaneous truths.

We are one and together because of each other, with each other, for each other.

Inspired by "Turning on the Light", Gunilla Norris, Author
