The path to true happiness is one of integrating and fully accepting all aspects of our experience.

This integration is represented in the Taoist symbol of yin and yang, a circle which is half dark and half

light. In the midst of the light area is a spot of darkness. Even in the depths of the darkness, the light is implicit.

Even in the light, the dark is understood,acknowledged, and absorbed.

If things are not going well for us in life and we aresuffering, we are not defeated by the pain or closed

off to the light. If things are going well for us and we are happy, we are not defensively trying to deny the possibility of suffering. This unity, this integration,

comes from deeply accepting darkness and light, and therefore being able to be in both simultaneously.

“One of the most important aspects inrecovering from trauma is moving it outside of yourself. That is, it’s not something that is about you. It’s not something that you did – it’s something that happened to you. And I

think that shift is the most important juncture toward healing.” – Wendy Smith
