"I think we humans want to pick a side because that feels like doing something. Then we can rage and judge and fight, and that also feels like doing something. But, is it? I wonder what we lose, when we accept the story that there are only two sides, only two options, only two ways to think or feel or act. Us or them. Right or wrong. Children get to live in safety here OR there. "
