I liked that. It "felt" right. :thumbup: :grin:

I think it is about finding the balance between logic and feeling... I've found that it is normally about the balance with just about anything. :wink:
Peace.

If I should die this very moment
I wouldn't fear
For I've never known completeness
Like being here
Wrapped in the warmth of you
Loving every breath of you

When I used the word 'conditioned', I meant it in the sense of your surroundings and the way you are raised a way of conditioning the way you think.

If that made sense.. To use it in a sentence in order to explain it better:

We are conditioned by society while we are young to believe things because 'that's how it is'.

I don't believe racism to be a proper way of thinking. I believe it's a nasty concept spawned by hate. But to someone who is raised (conditioned) to believe it is right, someone who has been raised to know nothing but racism, it seems right to them. I'm not saying it is okay to think that way just because that is all you have been raised to know.

It's a very controversal subject because who's to say they are right in the way they think? And who is to say we, who are not racist, are right? We don't have the right to judge another human being just because they don't believe in what we do. But maybe together, with intelligence and acceptance, we can learn to help and spread positive energy.
