Duality Of Existence
If in pain there is also pleasure
It is because the two come together
Hand in hand, like all else...
Part of the duality of existence...
All is proportional to its opposite,
Capable of the same extreme
As the swing of a pendulum is equal
Unless balancing is never still..
Faster I spin, though farther I fall
I shall yet rise higher, be sure that I know
Both ways the danger
As the the bliss are inseparable...
Possibility in every direction
I can nowhere again be lost
Or afraid of some place strange to me
When I have made a frame of choice and degree...
