Precisely so. I've willingly explored darkness to increasing depths, and it's been enormously rewarding! Of course, it comes with its own perils, but what doesn't?
I tell everyone that it's better to get into the Shadow willingly than to wait for it to manifest itself, which it most assuredly will. That way we can do it on our terms, instead of being forced to accept the conditions imposed on us by the environment.
Exactly. I think it's getting harder and harder to ignore the shadow now as well given the high frequency light coming in. That said, we can clear things very quickly now because of the high frequency light coming in!
