And We Reach

Dare to reach your hand into darkness, to pull another hand into the light.
Norman B. Rice
 
This morning as I drove into work, I watched the moon head for setting and a full red sun rising. I couldn't help but ponder the cycle of light and dark. Although we cannot sometimes see purpose in the dark we need to be there for growth to occur. The problems that happen is when we spend to much time in one or the other, rather than find the balance between the two. In my work, I find two thing related to this: people get stuck in the dark or they want to be in the light exclusively and end up in addiction (which is its own form of darkness).

So if you run into someone in the aforementioned state if you can reach your hand, you might be amazed at what happens.
