Yin and Yang

I have always been fascinated by the Yin and Yang symbol.  The simplicity of it captures the attention of every generation.  It wasn't until this last year when I took World Religion's and Taoism and Confucianism that I was truly able to learn about this symbol.  It's physical design may be simple, but it's inner meaning is far more complicated.
Out of the chaos came the balance of Yin and Yang.   It is not the elements of good and evil, but it is instead the presence of balance.  Yin, the feminine essence, represents the cool, female, water, light, etc.  The Yang represents the hot, male, fire, dark, etc.  In the cycle of life, there is in the height of Yin, the presence of Yang.  And in the height of Yang, there is the presence of Yin.  The initial idea is a balance of all things.
In our modern lives, I think that it is difficult to find that balance of all things.  We will try when we think the balance has gotten to rough, but in truth we should try to keep the balance every day.  Yoga and revitalization in the morning.  Exercise and invigoration during the day.  Cool down and relaxation in the evening.  Inn this cycle we can maintain a healthy balance in our lives.  I think it's worth trying.
