OPPOSITES ARE-TRACKED

Opposites are not separate
But irrevocably inter-connected.
Like the two faces of one coin,
One side cannot survive without the other.
We dance along the strands of that interconnection,
Pretending to be one
But not the other.......
Yet changing sides when it suits us,
Deluding
And deluded.

What makes us vulnerable is not our duality,
Our unexplainable inconsistencies
But our delusions about them.

Each one of us is a complex of dualities,
A mystery of competing contradictions.
Illogicalities and paradoxes,
Challenging us to take a step back
And look from another, wider perspective.

Don't be hostage to surprise;
Don't be troubled.
If you expect life to be fully rational
You are bound for frustration.
Simply notice what-is
One-der within it
And enjoy the play of light-ness.
