| light and dark |
The prompts are: wish: What dreams are you wishing for and picture: A ray of light.
I am finding it very interesting combining these two prompts, I find they support each other bringing writing and pictures together, which I love.
This week I have been thinking about balance, acceptance and compassion. Finding the balance between darkness and light is something I have been working on recently. I know there are riches to be found in the darkness but I don't want to spend so much time there that I start to feel like I'll never see the light again, you know what I mean?
I am bringing compassion and acceptance to where I am right now in this moment and at the same time I am setting intentions to mine that darkness which will make my life richer and more fullfilling. Just like spending too much time in the darkness can make you forget about the light the opposite is also true. I spent a lot of time ignoring those dark space and what happened was a cut my self off from a big part of myself and what makes me ME!
The picture I chose for 52 Photos Project represents this balance. You see the rich dark purple glow infused with the soft golden light within.
I would like to also share this song with you, I thought of it immediately when I read Jamie's wish prompt this morning. There are many versions but I kind of like this one, it's quirky, like me!
So my friends what dreams are you wishing for this week?
May you and yours be well.
Namaste,
Karen

That purpleness is so rich, reaching out softly into the darkness- beautiful. I am really interested in the relationships between light and shadow also, there is a lot to be seen, thought,said and felt in both elements I think.

wow! I thought of that same song when I saw my wish - even named my post after it! LOL LOVE it!

Side note: It wasn't until I was willing to walk into and embrace my shadows, rather than fighting them, that I really was able to "mine" it's gifts. There is much to be loved and blessed, that is in the dark. May your journey be blessed.
Beautiful! And I loved the video:)
