Two by two

All good (and bad) things come in two’s. Some represent opposites, some attractions. Adam and Eve. God versus. Lucifer. Cain v. Abel. Authoritarian hierarchical government v. Republican democracy. How to be happy and how to be thin as best-selling book ideas. Liberals, CBS news and the New Republic magazine compare George W. Bush to Iran’s Amadinejed. The National Review magazine and Rush Limbaugh contrast Ronald Reagan with President Obama.. Two by two of each species filed up the ramp of Noah’s ark. Two barn swallows on an electric wire and two swallows on their nest spend their overnights on my porch. Two’s, some representing a good, others an evil, continue to fill the pages of history.
