I sit on the fence that keeps two sides from
tearing each other down. I built that fence.

State of mind: doubtful; contemplative.
Thoughts: from thinking - about how I am sometimes accused of sitting on the fence and not having much of an opinion on current affairs.
Every conflict needs a mediator, a diplomat to quell or cool the heat of an argument.
Questions: what is the value in seeing all perspectives of an argument only to side with none? Is that really indifference or is there something deeper to do with acknowledging that there is no truth, only interpretation?

Afterthoughts: change is important because it encourages diversity. Conflict stimulates change.
I think what I am developing with this thought is more to do with the conflict in shaping what people believe is the best environment to exist in. In reality, there are many. There should be many and we should be free to move between them.
The internet is an environment. Some people ascribe to it, others don't. But both it and alternatives are important. Many facets has the diamond.
I believe the fence is symbolic for realising that there is not one perfect way, but many and is wrong to tear down the diversity we have in favour of a singular way.
