Hello Julie,

Nice to meet you and you new born son. Congratulations. I have been blessed myself with seven children.

Interesting post. I looked at it in different ways. When I first looked at it I immediately thought of light and the shadow its obstacles cast. As the light gets bigger it is able to reach more obstacles, thus more shadows (darkness). That can get pretty deep.

The other side of thought brought to mind of things regarding people. Lets use a group of people set out to do a good thing as an example. I will call those people the circle of light. As that group of people grows their popularity and recognition with outsiders grows as well. At the same time it seems that there is also some dark, sinister plan (the darkness) out there by some other individual or group to shut the circle of light down, darken their hopes, or make them look bad in some way. And as the circle grows, so does the desires of the darkness to bring them down.

For every good there is an evil, every positive a negative etc. Can one live without the other?

I never studied philosophy, Einstein, or anything close. I am probably way off key as to his meaning. This is just the way I look at it.

I learned in algebra class, in H.S., that Einstein is the only person that proved, with algebraic formulas, that 1+1 doen not equal 2. I never got that concept either.

My post is getting long, I better hang up and let someone else talk:-)

Have fun,

Dennis
