universal song

Push and pull
Empty and full
Ebb and flow
Learn and know

A balance of inwardness
And outwardness
I wish I could explain
The twists and turns of this lane

Dark and light
Day and night
Observing and living
Receiving and giving

Thereโ€™s a dream to be at peace
Thereโ€™s a knowing itโ€™s within range
With a smile and a breath of release
This feeling is a message no longer strange

Ace + Benjamin

And hereโ€™s the image version ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’™

Another duet (or should I say, universal song ๐Ÿ˜‰) with the incredible, Ben!! We hope this reminds you to let your inner balance sing!
