“Left and right. Light and dark. The thing and the space between.”
Why are some of us so scared of the word creativity? And for others, why would order and structure cause us anxiety? We as human beings seek to make sense of the world, to find balance and order in a fluid environment of chaos. Our lives exist at a point in time as the product of all of our decisions made up to now. And the factors that influence how we make our decisions is the result of elastic forces pulling at our hearts and minds. We can push out to the extremes or we may find harmony and even balance in the spectrums and spaces between the ends. As we explore the duality of symmetry, we will apply the concepts of absolutes and the transitions between them to better understand our own personalities.
