The Mystery within... |
I watched in fascination as the Earth’s shadow gradually
darkened the moon’s bright face last night. I wondered what part of earth’s geography
belonged to the slow growing darkness that was eclipsing the moon’s reflected sunlight? What landforms and people existed in
that growing shadowy space? Were famine
and violence there? Carl Jung in
his wisdom said: “Knowing your own
darkness is the best method for dealing with the darkness of other people.” And I felt the opportunity that awaits
us all in the power of reflection.
I also felt a little sigh of relief that Pope Francis was
now safely back home tonight. He
came and looked upon us with God’s eyes bringing Peace, Love, Joy and
Compassion and an example to emulate if we wish to bring the same to others.
What if we could all know the power of reflecting on our
shadow?
