Space.

How to define you?

Space can be good

Or

Space can be bad

Space can be yin

Or

Space can be yang

All are necessary for survival

The respective powers of yin and yang are inseparable of the other

Space can create boundaries

Boundaries

Which also can be yin

Or also be yang

Boundaries to respect yourself

And

Boundaries to protect yourself

And

Boundaries to seclude yourself

Too much space can be good

Or

Too much space can be bad

Not enough space can be good

Or

Not enough space can be bad

Physical space

And

Emotional space

And

Spiritual space

Growth occurs in space

But also deep loneliness

Space away from family

Space away from friends

Space away from a significant other

Solitude

Time alone

Alone

Space close to family

Space close to friends

Space close to a significant other

Memories

Love spread

Laughs

Lack of space or too much space

Both are good

And

Both are bad

There is yin and yang to space

Without the other, there is no balance

To space

Opposite forces

Are

Complimentary

Interconnected

Giving rise to another.

It may depend on

The day

The mood

The vibe

The energy

If you are good,

Or

if you are bad

You may create chaos

Or

you may create life

You may never be enough

Or

You may envelop infinity

Space.

How do I define you?
