From the mind of critic: “If we need light to see amongst the darkness, do we need darkness to see amongst the light? If we see nothing but light, how do we know it’s authentic if there is no darkness mixed in, and vice versa? Is ignorance really bliss, or are we simply to lazy to find the truth? We all want to be prosperous, joyful and purposeful, it’s one of the comonalities that bind us. What also binds us toegther, as well within ourselves, is looking for easy solutions. Sometimes we trudge through our daily routine, and think it will always be this way or that way. Maybe we see ourselves as always succeeding, and don’t see anyway we could fail. On the flip side, maybe we see ourselves as always failing, and don’t see success ever reaching us. We create our own realities through what we percieve. However, the only constant in life is change. Things can be great, things can suck, and things can fluctuate so wildly that it’s hard to keep our feet on the ground. We must remember that life is a series of moments, that run the gamut of good, bad and inbetween, due to environment, culture, background, financial status, along with infinitely more variables than we even have language for. If we hang on to tightly to these moments, meaning changes from its original intent. We might experience a great moment, but could make it bad thinking it will be the only one we’ll ever have, and vice versa. We can be blinded by the light, or swallowed up by the darkness. Pure sight leads to truth, which leads to fulfillment, which is gained by seeing what’s actually in front of our face.” 🙂
