There is a darkness in all of us, we fear that darkness inside and that fear causes us to harm ourselves or others. When we accept our darkness as well as our light, we become an integrated person.

"Without the darkness there would be
no luminosity of light. Without sorrow,
no recognition of ecstasy and joy. We
embrace the dark as the depth of life in
its mystery and magic, and we dare to
reach beyond the veil to a realm where
dreams dwell close to what is real."
