Who Is Right? Who is Wrong?


If I look around, at people and countries, I can't help thinking of how different we all are. It might seem that we dont even belong to the same species. It might seem we come from different worlds. It is amazing to observe the myriads of creeds (religions and kinds of spirituality), mentalities (ways of interpreting the meaning of life), behaviors (ways to deal with others). Its almost unbelievable how people can think and act in manners that are diametrically opposed to each other. It seems that what is right for one is wrong for another and viceversa. Are we all right? Are we all wrong? Are we sometimes right and sometimes wrong? Finally, and most importantly, is there a possibility to understand each other? We try to convince ourselves that we have found a common ground, but have we really? Isnt it rather a giving up from one side or the other? Everyone hopes that true peace and understanding will one day be achieved on this Earth. I hope it, too. Unfortunately, I'm not too sure that it will ever be possible. At least not until each of us keeps saying "I" and "mine" ... endlessly.
