Commonalities, not power (#1101)

We should have the same ambitions for each other and finding those similarities is done through conversation. We must talk with each other in order to find our middle ground for living. Nothing should be unacceptable when we begin to discuss our common futures. It seems though that that is the problem, us getting together. We must find a way to understand our commonalities. If we cannot all have the idea that together we do better, then we are in for some more upset. I feel the tension that is in our society through the air waves and in certain relationships. Why that is has more to do with what is wrong in our world and not with what is right. However, we can do more to make the right overwhelm the wrong. But it won't happen unless we can agree that we need each other. How one would go about rationalizing that they are better off alone in this world is inconceivable. yet many do and actually isolate themselves from as many people as possible. Hoarding their resources in a way that their lives are lived through fear and not through curiosity. I don't know how to tell people to just appreciate everyone like you would like to be appreciated and that is how it is done. I say the sentence like the previous one but it does not seem to be enough for hardly anyone. We all must come to our own conclusions. Funny though that many will abdicate their thinking to some who have some illusory sway over them but will stubbornly cling to thinking that has no rational basis. I am confounded by our species and our inability to find common ground, yet, I keep trying. My lifespan will end and others will come along and be perplexed as well but eventually something will happen to allow us to all find our center at approximately the same time. Here's hoping it is sooner and not later.
