Revelation: On the opposite ends of the fulcrum of life, reside two sets of energies. On one side, advantages, benefit- of- the doubt, freedom and abundance. On the other side, disadvantages, doubt- before- the- benefit, bondage and limitation. The balancing of the two extremes will create love, compassion, unity and will exalt the Kingdom of humanity.
