It is interesting the paradox’s we come across…
I learned a strictly offensive martial art(Bak Mei) for many years only to use it for defense(keep the peace)
While I see others learn a strictly defensive martial art(Aikido) only to use it for offense(instigate violence)
I see others lie, steal and cheat and consider themselves “good”
While I see others, simple, kind and generous consider themselves “bad”
I am no better and no worse than the next
The masks we wear in the name of true intent is intriguing, we often hide from the truth of the beast within. Is it so ugly to acknowledge the beast within?
“For humans to become humane, values must flourish, so for love of your own humanity, believe in more than beauty: believe also that the beast exists – What would be the point of life without Beauty? The beast asks this question in each heart, and when we answer with our being, our value is born.” Rachele Levante from the foreword of Into the Mind: Opening your Consciousness
And so it is when the reflection become clear we see the colors of beauty and the beast, Angels and Demons, and the full spectrum of LIGHT and DARK.
