A GLIMPSE OF REALITY
© Maggi Norris 1998
Often in our lives, we are given a glimpse of what the
reality of good and evil actually means. The severe heights and depths
to which both concepts can move are portrayed for us on a canvas painted
by life. In our "mere mortal" status, we accept these small insights
as unique and awe inspiring. If ever we saw either good or evil to the
fullest extent of its existence, our eyes would be blind to simplicity
for all time.
Life is so full of inspiration, if we but open our eyes to the possibilities
offered by insight. To follow a path of good or evil is a personal choice.
It can be a difficult decision to choose one or the other and remain
firm to your instinctive loyalty to one path or the other. Finding the
essence of that part of you that makes this choice is not always a pleasant
undertaking. To face that you have true good or evil within is beyond
the grasp of many a soul searcher. Some find it easier to ignore this
basic reality.
