Water, World Peace and The Equinox!

The poet Ralph Waldo Emerson Wrote:
" What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us "
---I have missed all of your wonderful insights and steady passion for realization.
As I travelled through the world of Peaceful concepts the last couple of months I began to understand my version of the unique nature of human beings and human-polarity---
It's like a battery with a + and a -
It is quite natural to be drawn like a magnet into polarity---at least for me---the fracas and fray of world events is the same on a grand scale...quite natural...peace and violence...passion and apathy.
I now consider concepts like yin and yang in a different way than before.
They dance together and create this world.
I am welcoming the coming equinox this week as a way to celebrate this wonderful mix of female and male energies that we have swirling inside of us---our within is so AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I left here a couple of months ago, I looked at world peace as a sort of political concept--lauding and respecting the web of receptivity that joins us all.
I don't see it that way now. My experiences the second half of this summer grew along with the peas in my garden ( and were eaten too!!)
strangely I see that hate and love are joined at their roots---and that this is okay---and that this world is mostly joined in its purest way by water.
All else has a natural polarity that is the turner of the wheels that are our fates.
I think that water...a fluid conductor...is what I was really seeking when I left here speaking of World Peace.
For some reason this makes so much sense to me that I was very happy to come back here and share this with you all...in a word: WATER!!!!!!
As I write it it seems to slip from my hands into something I can't quite relate!
I will say that I missed you all very much( ANd that I just dug out some lovely sweaters to go with this crisp northern air!)-----I'm happy to be back and am enjoying catching up on posts!---------------------------------------
