Yin and Yang Interdependent/Interconnected -
the "co-inherence of opposites" - Charles Williams
day can not exist without night
two distinct sides of the same coin

"When the world knows beauty as beauty, ugliness arises
When it knows
good as good, evil arises
Thus being and nonbeing produce each other
Difficult
and easy bring about each other
Long and short reveal each other
High and low
support each other
Music and voice harmonize each other
Front and back
follow each other"
Tao Te Ching 2:1-8
"If one wishes to shrink it
One must first expand it
If one wishes to weaken it
One must first strengthen it
If one wishes to discard it
One must first promote it
if one wishes to seize it
One must first give it
This is called subtle clarity"
Tao Te Ching
36:1-9
