I have increasingly discovered the existence of balance in one’s views on life, since that which is right, it seems, undulates between two antipodes. I list a few of them here.
- Love and Truth
- Word and Power
- Wisdom and Revelation
- Determinism and Free Will
- Nature and Nurture
- Confidence and Skepticism
- Satisfaction and Dissatisfaction
- Rebuke and Encouragement
- Freedom and Equality
- Order and Liberty
- Unity and Diversity
- Assertion and Submission
(From Relational Dialectics Theory, by Baxter and Montgomery:)
- Expression and Nonexpression
- Stability and Change
- Inclusion and Seclusion
The list is growing…
