Live with it
by Pratik Patel on Jul 06, 2007 11:40 PM

The truth of the matter is that we don't know. We don't know who's lying, we don't know who's saying the so-called truth. The problem is that we have confirmed all kinds of assumptions to be true. Who knows what happened thousands of years ago, even a few hundred years ago? Just because someone wrote about it, we have accepted it to be true? Is that all it takes for something to become the truth? And regardless of all that, should it matter that 'they' killed 'our' people thousands of years ago, hundreds of years ago, just 10 years back? What matters is NOW! And you can't live with a calm head in the present, if you carry the baggage of your past. This 'us and them' can go on forever. And once we get rid of 'them', it won't be long before we turn one of 'us' into 'them.' There is no limit to dividing one set of people, that's what history has taught us. We are all different - accept it and live with it!
