DARK and LIGHT - FRIDAY poem in honor to the lightness and darkness

'DARK and LIGHT

Dark and light

do not bite

they live next to each other

not to bother

no, to share a whole

to inspire your soul. 

Dark and light

sharing space 

not to chase

but to complete each other 

and not to smother. 

Sometimes the light needs some shade

not to degrade

but to give a balancing comfort

and sometimes the dark needs a spurt

of light

to make it a little more bright.

So, dark and light a complementary to be lived

seeing it as a gift. 

Because without the shade

and sun's hot light blade

it can burn your skin

awful raw thin.

And without the sunshine

the whole world would whine

because nothing would grow

nothing would glow, 

we would not exist

because there would be no mist

to nuture the plants

those produce the food we carry and hold in our hands. 

So, today I am grateful to both,

dark and light

because they are part of the slide

life is creating 

and chose

us, to be among

those balancing forces and listen to their song.

For the soul to inspire

and knowing there is something higher

than the obvious changes

with dark and light ranges

for us to find a deeper meaning

not to defeating

but to really see

what the message is 

to help us find inner bliss

and share this glee

to be you and to be me

who we really are

like a shining star

surrounded by comfort giving dark

and for sending a spark

into others darkness

that they see some hope in a confusing mess

they think they are caught in

and it is so fogging

their possibility to change perspective

is ineffective.

So, sometimes sharing a spark out of the dark

into someone elses heart

to make the light start

to expand from the core of being

back to agreeing

it is worth living all

and in case next time you fall

something will catch you

to see your unique being

and that it is true.

Dark and light are both there to give us comfort

and keep us alert

awake, aware with an open mind

and see again all the kind. 

So, saying thank you to both

and asking them to help me with my growth, 

into being

into seeing

into a fullfilled living

receiving and giving. '

PS from the afternoon: SIGH...back from a long long walk....
thank you life to make it possible on the day of light.

Being in the middle of darkness and lightness.
LOL....somehow darkness wanted to tell me some things again on the walk.
Grateful for the insights. 
Even that meant to go deep into it again. 
Not denying, just diving in. 
This year was a challenge.
Time to say thank you, and let it go, in its own time.

What I learned?

Reacting is not the best.

Acting after a little time to ponder better. 

That reacting is out of uncomfortness and that I learned to endure this uncomfortness, which helps a lot.

I learned to accept my weaknesses. 

I learned that darkness is not my enemy, it is my protection in some matters, protecting the light and 

sometimes you need to show DARK stop signs, to hold others at bay. 

I learned that I can surrender. LOL....yep.

I learned that I do not need to fix anything or anybody. 

And I learned this year I am a creator at heart and soul and that it  carries a huge responsibility.

I can create my connections with others. 

I can create this sacred space for myself, even someone doing it for me, the first time in life, just pushed me over and it made me smile on my walk realizing this all the way.

And TRUST into LIFE.

 

Just grateful!

THANK YOU.

Well, there is probably a lot more I learned, this just came up.

So, today is kind of a review day, 

darkness and lightness.

See you around or later after class for photo release. 

Smiles to you!
