The Sensuous Universe

The Universe is sensuous and balanced both chemically and physically. It is sensuous in the sense that it is composed of balanced opposites, mysterious and beautiful to behold.  Just take a look at the heavens above on a clear winter's night. Have you noticed that all of our compounds, both organic and inorganic are basically neutral?  The entire universe is balanced in its own way.   It might appear both violent and lifeless but in its entirety it is in a balanced state.
The universe is  neutral but how so?  For every feature of its existence there is an equal and opposite particle or force.

Every compound is neutral and balanced,  a positive ion balances a negative ion, an electron balances a proton.  The electrons whirling around the nucleus at the speed of light give both volume to and balance to our elements and compounds.

We have matter and dark matter.  I wonder if dark matter has supplanted anti matter in our scientific lexicon.  Over 2/3 of the mass of the universe is considered to be dark matter, postulated but never proven.  Without the imposition of dark matter on the universe, it could not exist as we know it, a constantly expanding universe.

It seems everything in the universe is composed of equal and opposite ( sometimes contradictory ) counterparts.  Life is also like that.  It is composed of elements, compounds, both organic and inorganic all contained in a discrete cell with a specific function.   Almost all life forms ( especially higher life forms ) are bisexual without which variety, vitality and the health of any particular life form cannot be sustained.

Male and female.  One without the other and the species perishes.   I look upon the woman as the nucleus ( protons and neutrons ) of the family about which the man  (electron - ) whirling about creating the volume and space for which the family is to survive.  The women provides the stability and the man by dint of his energy the living space which his family requires.  The man provides the house and the woman the home.

The more one looks at it, one perceives that the world as we know it, given the conditions and timing of its creation, had to be.  Life is ever present in the universe, very tenacious  and a force to be reckoned with. Had we the means and knowledge, we could find it almost everywhere.  I theorize that given the positive and negative aspects of the universe, life with its bisexual nature had to be.
