Shadow cannot exist without light
Just as wars are fought to hold on to peace
It is a paradigm which humans cannot escape
This balance insists that it needs to be part of us, nature and the universe
‘The awareness that we are all human beings together has become lost in war and through politics’ 1952 Nobel Peace Prize philosopher Albert Schweitzer
A reflection- contemplation on the human paradox, we have the inability to cease the suffering and violence upon each other, yet equally -we possess passion, love, compassion and humanity.
