It’s all Relative
The animals
The plants
The people
Life.. in its entirety
Everything that ever is or was
Is relative to your perspective
to your experiences
to your actions
your thoughts
your point of view
No two people will ever see eye to eye
Because one body cannot occupy the same space
As another at the same instance
We may be able to replicate one’s perspective
And empathize to the point of agreeance and compromise
But unless you can turn back time
To relive someone else’s life
You can never see eye to eye
We can share experience
Whether it be through lessons
Or simply experienced simultaneously
Observed at this instance and scale
We can agree that this is eye to eye
But when compiled with all other experiences
The interpretations change
Prerequisite knowledge needed
To process said experience will always be
Different, either through differing lessons
Or different perceptions
Even these small discrepancies, overtime,
Create major contrast between two perspectives
When we study masses of population
We see patterns in beliefs and opinions
This is a simple byproduct of the aforementioned
--Sharing of experiences--
Many of the conflicts that arise in society
Can boil down to the simple system
Of good and evil
When you allow two options posed
On a mass of people, inevitably
A portion will choose option A
A portion will choose option B,
And a portion will remain undecided
Each option posed is both good and evil
But the portion that chooses their respective option
Believe it to be good and the opposition to be evil
This decision is directly relative
To the perspective of the individual
The conclusion of good vs evil
Can be shared, though the reasoning
That led to said conclusion will have differences
The experiences that offer similar conclusion
May and often are similar and even sometimes
Appear to be identical
Most behavior, when directed toward
Another form of life, can be labeled
Good or evil
When boiled down to the
Black and white..
It will either be
One or the other
