Life isn't theoritcal, it doesn't run on slogans and logical quotes. It always demands that you pick a side and stand there. That is why we take different paths because of the difference in our personalities, beliefs and thought patterns. When you don't make a choice, it makes one for you while you think you aren't choosing. You are unconsciously standing for something, just not bold about it and those on the outside always see it.

Even you personally get to see it, in your actions, your words but fail to admit it because what you want life to be and what it actually is don't match.

I get your point and I agree with you.
Life still picks a side for you..but it never holds your finger pointing it at the other side. Right?!

People be forgetting that what their differences forbid or allow, do not apply to other people and right there is where all the problems come in. Now couple that with people not being allowed to choose their differences, then things just get physical at this point.

I think the reality is that we can never all share the same beliefs or uphold the same values. Because of that, there will almost always be some form of “us” and “them,” whether we like it or not.

And when those differences exist, conflict tends to follow — sometimes within “us,” sometimes against “them", a recurring part of human nature.

Yes, in theory we could all live differently and coexist peacefully. But humans are an insatiable species. We naturally compare ourselves to others and strive to be better in one way or another.

That drive pushes us to explore, compete, and challenge what already exists. Without that tension, without people taking different sides, pushing different ideas, and defending different values — progress might stall. Many of the systems, innovations, and even civilizations we know today were shaped by people choosing sides and pursuing what they believed in.

So, while simply living differently sounds peaceful, history suggests otherwise.

True, History suggests differently.
But living peacefully is way above anything else, because either way..kicking the bucket is the end result
