A dance of contrasts

Dec 4, 2025

It’s a dance of contrasts, of light and dark. That’s what your world is about. The ups and the downs and the inside outs.
You need it all to understand in depth who you are.

Through the contrast with the life around you – the people such as Uncle Fred, who says things that you don’t like to hear – you discover things about yourself that you love to hear, things that you want to hear,
things that are all about you. You don’t have to adhere to what Uncle Fred feels about life. You can feel your own feelings about it. You can have your own beliefs about it.

My dear friends, you can live in whatever world you want to, on the inside.
That is how you create your own reality—through your choices and perceptions—and let Uncle Fred have his.
Goodness gracious! That’s the beauty and wonder of existence,
my dear friends: that there is no one way to live.


Some people absolutely thrive on anger, thrive on madness,
thrive on hatred. They love being in that place. They love being in that energy and that frequency. That is where they live. That’s where they feel alive in their heart, God bless you indeed.
But, my dear friends, you don’t have to do that.
You don’t have to buy into all of that and worry about it.
Just let people be who they are, God bless you indeed.
And be who YOU are.
