Morning  :o? Morning is definately wrong. Morning is not my time of the day. I'm a night-owl and therefore tired in the mornings  :)

So...  Based on this (scientific as it is ;)), I'd say Ennis is yin and Jack is yang.  Agreed?

Nope, I'd say vice versa (based on this very, very scientific  ;) list of matching words).
From the yang list, there are only two I wouldn't link with Ennis: creative and active. The rest I would link more with Ennis than with Jack.

From the yin list, there are 7 (out of 11) items I clearly link more with Jack than with Ennis (fall, winter, afternoon, moon, time, metal and honey).

Really?  I see Ennis as being all of the items on the yin list except "feminine."  He's definitely devoted, forgiving, and like fall and winter (likes/doesn't mind the cold), and passive (unless he gets mad).  I see him as the moon and Jack as the sun, and metal makes me think of his only traveling around the coffee pot looking for the handle, tripping over all those pots and pans, and shoveling that asphalt.  I see Jack as representing space - he is the all outdoors that Ennis keeps looking out the windows to find.  I see him chopping wood and I see him being as sweet as honey.

Guess that's just me.  ;)

Sometimes it all still feels like a mass of dots               
but
more and more these days
I feel like we're all connected
and it's beautiful   
and funny
and good.

My logic regarding sun/moon and the seasons went just the other way round: Ennis doesn't mind the cold (at least not as much as Jack) because he is the sun, the spring and the summer, therefore is warm by himself.
Jack is the cold(er) moon, fall and winter, therefore needs the sun's/spring's/summer's = Ennis' warmth.

Jack=metall and Ennis=wood is plain as day to me (very scientific again  ;)).

And the honey? I think honey is even sweeter than chocolate. I think Ennis is sweet, but Jack is sometimes (most notably in the earlier years) even sweeter, almost puppy-like, almost too sweet (for my personal taste, others will probably see this different).
