Different is Entirely Subjective

E felt everything to the deepest depths possible.

L thought about everything as thoroughly and reasonably as possible.

E couldn't possibly imagine a world that wasn't dripping in colors.

L couldn't possibly comprehend the purpose of colors.

The two of them were distinctly different, that much is clear to all of us. 

L joined others just as logical.

E joined others just as emotional.

L came to a conclusion.

E experienced a revelation.

Neither had grown. Perhaps, a balance could be obtained?

Together?

They clashed and blended into a most beautiful mess of chaos. They debated, shared, pontificated, experienced, compromised, learned and grew.

Together.

They thrived.

Equal But Opposite

Strength and Weakness,

Opposite but the same.

A codependent cycle,

With ups and downs: untamed.

Where Strength is high,

Weakness is present,

As Weakness breeds Strength

And Strength tempts the unpleasant.

The two will never separate,

As Strength needs his brother.

They're equal but opposite,

And cannot exist without the other.
