Inspiration & Paradox 21: Paradoxes are neither good nor bad.

Paradoxes permeate every bit of our life. There are countless of these opposing forces that we do not have to reject or accept the other, for instance, liberty is good and so is authority; outspokenness and silence; having and giving; boldness and humility; abundance and emptiness; courage and fear; familiarity and freshness, etc, etc, etc. One doesn't have to override the other; both can co-exist. Both in fact are very much entwined, each drawing out the precious, intimate truth in the other.
