How to marry opposites, to balance black and white, create a masterpiece of colour without blending into gray? Life is a mixed assortment from which we must then choose those pieces of the puzzle which will help us lose all notion of desire, and mount ever higher still, until we know the truth, and reality bites us hard.

To leave behind the past, and all that it represents, takes an act of courage and an iron will of strength. It also involves a letting go, a going with the flow, and taking time to assimilate just what one needs to grow.

The future is uncertain; from a viewpoint, still unknown, and for awhile it seems that all is lost, outgrown. And in this void there is the echo of a still small voice, louder does it grow until one recognises choice; to listen to oneself and act on what is heard, or close all channels to the flow of that which can’t be bared.

But, little by little, the tides return to shore and bring with them a meaning unbeknownst before. And from a higher viewpoint one can see the path open up before, and invite adventures too. And then, as one moves onward, those tasks which once seemed hard, resolve themselves effortlessly and decisions have been made which serve the highest good of all, and balance is restored.

So do not stand there blankly, and try to choose when blind. Take your leap of faith, but have intuition on your side, and use all means of wisdom accumulated in this life, and love of self newfound to state your intentions fare. Choose colour any day over gray from extremes which otherwise ensnare.
