Negative energy not all-consuming.

Every human being lives in an environment that is characterized in part by its negative energy. When you see large groups of people responding positively to the negative energy expressed by a few, that is clearly an example of how there may be benefit from what is dark, negative, or evil. But when you personally experience what is negative, you may sometimes ask “why me?” There is no answer to “why me,” because in asking the question “why me,” it is implied that somehow you are exempt from that which takes place.

You can learn from the response of many to the actions of the few when that response is an affirmation of what is good, right, and loving. When you experience the presence of negative energy in your own life, you have the opportunity of responding as if you were many. You can respond with strength, with optimism, care, hope and faith, with a certainty that out of what happens there can only be light. There is no negative energy which is so totally consuming that there is no light.

Astronomers ponder the implications of black holes, of energy that is so apparently strong that not even light emerges. Even recognizing the scientific search for an explanation, there must be an awareness that what seems to be the lack of physical light in the vicinity of black holes is the very energy that is encouraging humankind to more fully understand what life is, why it is, and how one can respond through understanding. The search itself is a form of light that is elicited through the study of unexplainable darkness.

There is no darkness, therefore, that has within it the strength to totally obliterate what is good. There are energies that would serve to diminish the power of light, to transform the energy of light, but that energy still exists. The loss of energy in one place has within it the impetus for the creation of energy elsewhere.
