I'm playing with light. Actually, that's not true. I'm playing with dark - because it's in how we apply the darks that the lights really show up. It's a duality.
Duality shows up frequently in my life. Powerful opposite forces. It's easy to feel like one of those forces needs to be shut down or tamed, and to be honest, I have spent a lot of years trying to obliterate one or another of them, believing that its presence meant that there was something wrong with me and that if I could change it, I'd be better.
It took a long time to realize that the trick is not in the changing, but the arranging.
Embrace the light and the dark and you can communicate powerful things. Arrange things right and all of the sudden beautiful images appear.
