An introvert, Tumblr is my sanctuary; I do not chat privately. This blog is a mix of others' works and my own Nature-oriented photos. Although rarely updated, I've kept my other two blogs: lunaladee (my photography) and lunaslairthree. BTW, I'm Luna; Zoeflake (rhymes with snowflake) is one of my six sweet kitties.
How is one to live a moral and compassionate existence when one is fully aware of the blood, the horror inherent in all life, when one finds darkness not only in one’s culture but within oneself? If there is a stage at which an individual life becomes truly adult, it must be when one grasps the irony in its unfolding and accepts responsibility for a life lived in the midst of such paradox. One must live in the middle of contradiction, because if all contradiction were eliminated at once life would collapse. There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light.
Light and Dark, connected / Lunaladee “Our work is to integrate and eventually transend darkness and light altogether by holding them equally in a state of interconnection.” —Sasha Graham
