Shadow of Death

Excellent Girl
"Beauty is in the presence of complex
 issues of story, song & deepening wisdom."
- Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 

The words, "...I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil..." I suspect are talking to the story of being in the light. As I understand light and shadows they play with each other. Their exchanges reveal and conceal during the hunt, or the stalk. Understanding each exchange is a matter of life and death. Being in light creates the chance for darkness to play with shadow, and being in shadow the knowledge of how light and shadow play with the eyes determines invisibility to the hunter, and vulnerability to the hunted standing in the light.

That was a long way of explaining something very simple to learn in the forest at any time of day. It is about relationship, and distance, and close proximity of light and darkening shadows to the truth of one's state of being! Death lives in the light and lurks in the darkening shadows. In either place one must be centered for the hunter and the hunted can switch robes in a single instance. - Gregory E. Woods 6.20.13
