Yes! In a video I watched a few days ago, Jordan Peterson was saying that unless you face and accept your dark side, you will just be a weak person.
I agree. It’s not that once you find your dark side you have to express it – it’s that you find it, accept it’s there, and choose NOT to express it. That makes you a strong person. And dangerous, because you know you will use that dark side if needed. I really like that.
There are those who deny the dark, and want everyone to be super-sappy-nice-nice. That’s not true reality.
And in recent years, people have let out their dark without thought of consequence at all. That’s even worse.
I believe it’s time to focus on building a kindness-oriented culture, while acknowledging that we do have danger within us, and we will use it – if needed – to defend the Light.
