Someone brought up a question today about 'darkworkers' which led into a long discussion about the light and dark, a recurring topic on PalTalk.  A good many people believe that there must be a balance between light and dark, good and evil, etc, etc.
I've believed for a long time now that the dark is nothing more than fear and ignorance, especially ignorance - for the more aware one is, the less there is to fear. 
Essentially, the light is wholeness and the dark illness - and of course on this plane where nothing is absolute, both light and dark exists in all of us to varying degrees.  Lightworkers seek to increase wholeness within themselves and others by enhancing their awareness of and integration with Spirit thus sharing their peace and joy - while darkworkers clutter their own minds and the minds of others with useless and self-destructive 'information'. 
Having said all that, I also realize that 'dark' is often a tool for increasing the 'light' - helping us become more aware and stronger in our faith.  In fact, sitting here reading what I just wrote it strikes me that that could very well be the dark's main reason for being - to help us in our spiritual evolution - the presence of pain is a call for healing (becoming whole).  In which case, as we - individually and as a race - mature spiritually, there will be less and less need for the dark. 
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH- there is hope!!!!

Dear Lakey,

I have enjoyed your 'musings'.

I have only one thing to say to the dark and the light.......and I quote a dear friend of mine ParadoxSox aka BlackWhiteKnight.....

Without an UP......there would be no DOWN.

Hehehe......I wonder if I will ever get the hang of all this stuff, or even if I am meant to (giggle).
