The Darkness Within
In the shadow of our minds we create “bad” things. But the bad things are things arising from our nature, the same as those parts of ourselves we praise. Being parts of the one whole truth of who we are, often that shadow mirrors everything we consider worthy, every virtue we claim stemming from something we dubbed a vice. Body, mind, soul = animal, human, god. Refuse to give one place, and you alter everything you accept. The villain isn’t in any one part of yourself. It’s in the action of tearing yourself to pieces.
Be centered in watching yourself learn. If you will see no evil, you also will heal no evil. If you see enough evil, you will not call it evil. You will know it as a part of the cycle of the world itself, and you will choose in knowing, where in the past you chose in denial.
If I permit my own temperament to manifest, I favour expedience over endurance. I favour what many judge a dark spiritual path, a negative world view, and I am often judged for it. I favour it as an acknowledgement of my own temperament, my own nature, and not from any morbid reactionary view. I find that through my dark lens, I often see things that the light chasers claim I cannot possibly see, because supposedly they understand truth best.
