Symmetry, Balance, Perfection
Symmetry is as reflection,
a balance of one side to another,
and in nature balance abounds,
thus symmetry also,
as is evident in all of the natural world.
Yet symmetry is never perfect,
nuances and slight details unique,
so nature’s will is never definitive,
the balance between things
an overview of necessity, but never complete.
As truth is never complete from any perspective,
because our understanding evolves,
and balance too makes room for change,
as life never stays the same,
in its continuous path of growth.
In symmetry we attain balance,
a prerequisite of life,
yet change is in constant flux
as we learn and understand what balance creates,
and adjust our lives to embrace it.
Sometimes symmetry is expressed
in no-symmetrical ways,
yet from another plain, another viewpoint,
the balance and symmetry is the same,
so in perceiving it, we must be open.
Nature in all its perfection and enigma,
is profoundly right,
for no matter our understanding,
the fact that life works and moves so intricately,
is evidence of a far greater understanding that we.
Our observations give rise to thoughts,
that in turn give rise to learning
that finds a balance within our souls,
all we need to function, to flow with life,
to grow within its masterful paradigms.
Definitive answers will never come,
as what definitive is,
is far outweighed by life’s incalculable variations,
all of which would take lifetimes to even grasp,
and then we would still be left wanting.

Interesting verse on symmetry and balance, Tony. You are right, “symmetry is never perfect”, yet it is seen as perfect when we do not notice the nuances and slight details. Change is constant, even our perspective changes at times. I enjoyed this great piece for it makes me look deeper.
PS: Yes, cats are astral travelers and so attuned, but I did not realize they spend so much time in other planes.
Glad you enjoyed Phyllis, yes cats spend most of their sleep time on the astral: they are very perceptive creatures. Cheers!
