The Dark Can Not Exist in the Light

10 November 2010

The movie – Agora – taught me

  an important lesson about intolerance. 

  Intolerance starts with ignorance, 

  is fed by fear, 

  lavishes in hate and

  ultimately leads to loss of life.

It is that simple.

We all have the capacity for light and darkness. 

  Our fears lead us into the dark. 

  The light in us shows us out of the darkness

  and challenges us to examine our own fears and intolerance.

I must learn my way through my own intolerance

  or the fear in me will ignite 

  and I will create darkness even though my will is to create light.
