Light and Shadow


Countless times I took myself too seriously that I sometimes thought--- it was good or..... it was horrible or.....that I was going to have a breakdown.... but at the end my sense of humor came out...... Reading my collage gave me different kinds of feeling.......and I suddenly remembered one poem and quote that I like....but hey---feel free to share what can you see and feel in it and/or how it is related to Light and Shadow.

Observe the qualities of expansion and contraction
in the fingers of your hand:
surely after the closing of the fist comes the opening.
If the fingers were always closed or always open,
the owner would be crippled.
Your movement is governed by these two qualities:
they are as necessary to you
as two wings are to a bird.
Rumi
Mathnawi III, 3762-66, The Pocket Rumi Reader


Just as you breathe in and breathe out
Sometimes you're ahead and other times behind
Sometimes you're strong and other times weak.
Laozi
