When do you delve into your passions, power and ego, and when do you check in with your tranquility, serenity and peace? Eh...that's the question a lot of us are asking right now. I may or may not have it figured out. Maybe it's because I've really gotten consistent with mediation and dissecting my feelings.... or maybe it's because I just love Star Wars. In a video game I played throughout most of my childhood, there's a demonstration of the difference between those two extremes. Sometimes the Dark Side is fun, but it's also confrontational and aggressive. But does the only path to peace and the Light mean being selfless, psuedo-self-aware, dogmatic, and well rested (shout out to the sleepy, heavy-eyed folks out there)?  Whatever the case may be, here's an answer to this question. And, if you've been  wondering the same thing, don't worry--you are not alone. Check out this episode, "Peace & Power", to uncover the mysteries of the Dark Side!!! Or listen to a few anecdotes, personal case studies, a pretty hype spoken word poem, and more. "Peace of mind or Power and influence? Is there a balance and at what cost?"
