Gaining Understanding

by Cheryl Merrick

How can we truly understand
hot without cold
hard without soft
smooth without bumpy
short without long
sweet without bitter
kindness without rudeness
gentle without rough
health without sickness

light without dark
sunshine without shadow
calm without wind
satiation without hunger
youth without age
straight without crooked
strength without weakness
peace without turmoil 
energy without fatigue
excitement without boredom
love without hate
dry without wet
relaxed without tension
security without danger
fast without slow
life without death
hope without despair
growth without decay
remembering without forgetting
inspiration without dullness
creativity without destruction
happy without sad
joy without sorrow
time without endings
