Life is all of it. Not just some of it, but all. So, all of the things we wish weren't part of our world, such as homicide, disease, torture, death, robbery. As well as love, compassion, joy, laughter.
But to disavow the one diminishes the other.
To embrace the light as well as the dark gives a kind of unshakable power. One not dependant on circumstances, or timing. Power that develops over time.
The real power is in not pushing away the dark side of life or oneself, but collaborating with it.
