Technically, everyone is a shade of grey. Everyone has light and dark tendencies, unless you're Jesus or Satan (which no one is or can be).

The key is to not be defined by either side.

Even Satan was once an Arch Angel.

And he's definitely more likable now. Who wants to be friends with a goody-goody? ;)

Really? Can you introduce me?

I do not mind at all defining myself as Dark. I do not mind being defined, such does not limit me in any way, only perhaps others perceptions of me, but then, that is there limitations regardless of how I align myself.

So, the key, if there is one, as I see it, is more a case of how you want to be defined, and not seeking to avoid such.

Others will judge by your actions regardless, and while sure, you could argue all day that one is not wholly this or that, I do not see this a point proved, more, it only shows that people can have only the view that extremes with complete rigidity is a valid marker on what one considers a light, or dark path.

More interesting for me, is that while most here it seems can only see these two paths in regards to moral and ethical lifestyles, that is not how I see the Dark path. I dont know how the Light goes about it, but as I see it, there is more to it than than that in being on the Dark path at least.

"Oh, I like dogs so im not all Dark."

Well, if that is your sign post for what it entails to be Dark, or not be Dark, fine, but you have defined it regardless.

Only you have done it in a negative fashion.

I suppose I should go kick some puppies now.

I'm by no means an authority on the subject but I cover a bunch of my thoughts on the topic in my journal that would be worth reading, I'm on my phone so hard to get a link but just search for my name I'm sure it will come up

I am a light Jedi. I am a light warrior. I will fight if i have too, I always make my best to make peace. I will oppose evil & protect from darkness. I will use my understandings of nature, knowledge & my empathic abilities to heal & to protect.

Feed Jesus in your heart & the Angels will take you when your soul is free.

Feed the devil in you & the demons will take you when your soul is free.

Where you lean you will stay!!!

I'm a Jedi, a follower of Jediism. I have both what could be considered "light" and "dark" qualities. But which i choose to act upon, is based on the teachings of Jediism. I don't need any extra labels then Jedi
Pretty simple if you ask me ;)

Yugen (幽玄): is said to mean “a profound, mysterious sense of the beauty of the universe… and the sad beauty of human suffering”

Perhaps "defined" was the wrong word to use. Everyone, as you Khaos pointed out, is defined in one way or another. I suppose what I meant was that the key is not to be limited by your definitions, that you're free to act outside them when you feel like it.
