And sometimes it’s really just an onion. Black and white are opposites, but an argument can be made that they are non-color and all-color,
which makes them more alike than not and, when drawn to each other and patterned into herringbone,
can give us an endless palate of grays and the spectrum with which we perceive light and shadows,
and that’s what puts our universe into perspective. The faculty of seeing all the relevant data in a meaningful
relationship leads to understanding that reality can only be known in terms of perspectives and angles,
shadows and reflections, as perceived by individuals or populations at a particular moment in time.
It is best to suspend reality. Truth is better than fiction anyhow.
