Twin Scenario

Would we love a baby’s laugh if we never heard it scream? Would we grasp reality without the vision or the dream? Would the brightness of the sunrise mean as much without the night? Would the trophy from the victory mean as much without the fight? Do we appreciate the inside after being locked without? Does the shadow of the unknown help us grasp what life’s about? Would we ever feel the joy if we never felt the pain? Loved the warmth of sunshine if it wasn’t for the rain? When the darkest times of sorrow on our path came bearing down Did it not define the joyfulness that later we have found? If never were we down would we then not know what’s up? If once we tasted dregs would we lift another cup? If never did we die then never would we live Most likely would we miss what life would like to give So one defines the other on this path that we will go Life is all about… the twin scenario David Kettler Written 9/22/10
