Polarities

part of the human experience
     is that everything all the time is a choice

you choose what you want to express with your energy 
      - the good, the bad, the ugly-
the energetic mechanism of polarity             
allows this free will experience

     what do you choose?
giving to flow out and lift another 
or grabbing to draw energy from another 
        
     what do you choose? 
love with unconditional acceptance 
or lust with consuming greedy desire 
         
     what do you choose? 
surrendering and allowing the universe
or dominating and controlling outcomes 
     
     what do you choose? 
 embracing differences with understanding 
or conflict and power games 
       
     what do you choose? 
truth and transparency 
or lies and deceit 
       
      what do you choose?  
unity recognition of all is one and divine 
or separation mentality of division and lack 
         
when you subjugate ego 
           and make the higher soul choice     
you expand your light 

so what do you choose?
