Should we ever fight? Or just get along?

When people ask "is the world real" and "are others real", a good punch in the face says "yes". But, this, too, is illusionary. And it just reinforces the delusion of separation.

Individuality is a curse because it blinds us to unity.

We should be corporate borg and all be nice to each other instead.

If a garden is full of only one kind of flower in the same color, the garden is boring. However, fill the garden with flowers of every size, shape, color, and fragrance and it becomes beautiful with the diversity. There is unity in the diversity. If only people could see that there is a beauty to our diversity. We could get along if we get our "ego" out of the mix.

The war in life is but within you projecting out..each separates them self..Example:if you see color of skin as a separation of man, that is what you project through racism.

We should all just live peace.

Separation is not a delusion on the human plane of experience. You can say we are one all you want but will fail to demonstrate that every time when you try. Why?

Now if you want to go quantum on my a*s, yes, we are all mostly space and the occasional spark of energy/mass...oh, there's one neutron of "you" over there the equivalent of 6,000 miles away from the next one!

BUT we experience on this 'plane' and your body is not mine. Although we never actually touch, if we clunk heads it really hurts anyway...and that contusion really bleeds. How do I know? Experience. Hey, it's the most honest game in town.

So, how do we exist in regards to each other as seperate? Behavior, lots of it, and much of it destructive.
If we could start all over from scratch knowing what we know now, we still can't be sure we wouldn't divert quickly off the good road. As a species we are adolescents pretending we are adults. Problem is, in the current system of global inneficiency there is not enough goods to go around. So we have the haves and the have nots. Block! (fist coming at your face). Whew, that was a close call!

It's not looking good, bro (or sis)! I'm open for suggestions but unfortunately those in power are the adolescents pretending to be adults.

Why should we be corporate Borg when corporate Borg already exist? Corporate Borg are what ails us and our country.

Of course we should try to get along, but some of humankind will always fight.

fighting physically is something you should grow out of.. as you discover eloquence and alternate means of conflict resolution.

The hard truths about it are usually that it, in Biblical jargon, "violence only begets more violence"...

but we all have an animalistic need to fight and that will inevitably include fighting to establish who we are and our higher place in the pecking order as we grow up..
the important thing is to get wisdom and grow past that...

In my Daughter's High School, I hear about the fights that break out over stupid things, well we as Adults think them to be stupid . Many reasons for this. Perhaps they were never taught a better way to communicate, or it stems from fear, cowardness, low self esteem or Peer preassure. It rarely solves anything and even after that punch in the face they walk away still feeling unsatisfied.To me, fighting is a temporary fix, in a perfect world I would rather want to understand where the anger is coming from, talk about it, come to a mutual respectful common ground and hopefully walk away without suffering that broken nose or worse. I gave many hours at the High School mentoring these kids, most of them want the same thing, respect, admiration, love, acceptance, and many of them tell me they do not even get this from home, so they need some sort of outlet to express their anger and aggression. I came up with an idea where they can use Art or music to express themselves and it really works. Ofcourse I'm speaking on a smaller scale compared to the fighting that happens in political aenas and the sensless Wars, I doubt Art and music will solve those Problems, and I wish I had the perfect solution for World peace.
