Is it really necessary to see the world in extremes?  Is it really appropriate to see in black and white?  If you're right do I have to be wrong?  If you win do I have to lose?  If you win does everyone else lose?  What about all of the in-between?  Does truth only stand with you?  Is there really only two sides to every story?  Do you really care?

I don't understand oppositional living.  I don't understand indifference.  Why can't we be accepting of others lives?  Why can't we show a little compassion, a little understanding?  Why can't we accept that different does not mean right or wrong?  Why can't we look at our fellow man with love?

Is there nothing that we can agree on?
