All is one ... whether we believe it or not

I recognize in all souls our common extremes of courage and brutality; love and contempt; embrace and assault ... our knack for colouring this “black” and that “white.” What is sunlit at noon is in shadow by five. All that exists is kissed by dawn ... subsumed into night.

There really is no “us and them” – it’s all “us”. I recognize in my own shadow the shuttered lids of a thousand eyes, all seared by the same light; all scaling the world within and without for a feeling of home.
