In each of us, there lives an inner, symmetrical image that attempts to hold our outer experiences in a larger context, making room for revelation. In the poetic tradition, the metaphor for this hidden image is darkness, and in every human life there comes a time when we are asked to have faith in what it can reveal to us. Using a combination of lecture, poetry and story, David Whyte illustrate this symmetry, and the way we are all part of a much greater story than the one we tell ourselves.
