“Any real quest for enlightenment is a dark and dirty business full of suffering as you unbind layers, that lighten you up as you go.
The yin and the yang are parts of the same whole. And to me EVERYTHING is spiritual and life in all its dimensions is a constant practice.
I’ve walked this edge in my work and my life for a long time.” – MC
