Opposites attract

Ever seen the moon in the sky as the sun starts to rise? 

I saw that one morning, and it made me realize how often we hold two opposites at the same time. We live in a world where dichotomy reigns supreme - you are either for me or against me. If you don't love everything about me, then you hate me. This is a lie. I love my children, but don't love it when they disobey. My husband loves horror movies, but I don't. Does that mean I don't love my husband or children anymore, because of it? Of course not! Then why do we fall for that with politics or religion or lifestyles? 

We also fall for that with emotions. We're either happy or sad, angry or excited. But you can hold two at the same time, like grief and joy. That's where I am right now. 

In crafting news, I took a picture of all my WIPs. Being stressed is a time to cast on!

There is a lot of color here, which is so different than what I have always worn. I realized I should make a black sweater, or at least a dark grey one. That's for another time though. 

This time of year is so busy, and there are a lot of things going on for me and my family. I am sure there is for you as well. I pray that you have a blessed Thanksgiving and enjoy the time you have with those you love.
