Right or wrong is not the question. To live is to learn from mistakes you will make, and do better the next try.We, especially in what sometimes is referred to as "the Western world", have a very strong conviction that we are right, and they are wrong. Our conviction is so strong, that more and more, some people think it is justified to threathen the other's life just for having a different opinion. That is a very sad development. If we can not any longer accept the other if they do not think the same way we do, our societies, our civilsation, is doomed. Sure, I may not agree with you. I may even argue that with firm language and strong words. But I will not threathen you with any form of physical harm. Sometimes you are wrong, sometimes I am wrong. And only if we talk about it in a respectful manner, we are both right. And to be honest, if you are never wrong, you will not learn and will never get anything right.SUPPORT THIS NEWSLETTER VIA HYPERSUBSubscribe to Trpplr on HypersubTrpplrs are sending ripples of poetry through the world, to make it more fun.
