The coincidence of opposites

נקבים נקבים, חלולים חלולים..
There are two types of lack.
There is the hole in something which should be whole, and there is the void, the absence, which nothing should, or could fill.
The hole, or the break drives us to find a solution, a reparative response. It calls for action.
The void, the silent emptiness of vacated space demands submission. It, if it can be called an it, reminds us to be still, to listen, to surrender to the flow of that which happens.
The hole pushes us to run forward, to do, to fix.
The void allows us to return, to rest, to be.
Breath in, breath out.
Fill and empty.
רצוא ושוב כמראה הבזק…
