Life's Varying Shades...

Perpetual cycles- the dualities of life, light and dark beginnings/endings estrangement and reconciliation... And what of the color grey? That shade seen as gloomy, mysterious. Or can it be viewed as silver? regal and resplendent... but then, back to lowly grey- juxtaposed with scarlet, purple it becomes art - a mosaic, so beautiful. And now, this uncertainty and fear -a collective insecurity, for security, yes, is among Maslow's hierarchy of needs... Belonging and tranquility, that longing for rescue- for the religious, a saviour, for the romantic, a knight in armor... but are these all like soap bubbles? Gossamer and airy, though too soon burst... Still, there are moments ( and for the lucky, - years) of happiness loving and loved... While my beliefs are- it is all a cosmic yin/ yang rhythms and fluctuations, our emotional states varying... A " What goes up must come down." And, " Weeping at night brings laughter in the morning." A " back and forth" And, " round and round" It is simply, life every day...
