The world isn't black and white

I'm allways astonished why people tend to seperate the world into black and white, why they devide it into their position and the rest as one uniformed adversarial belief. That's one of the reasons why discussions often get acute and controversial. Those people only know black and white.

With everything in black you don't see anything. No light, the total absence of light. And as a contrast everything is by far to bright when white is the only color you know. It will hinder you to perceive any nuances.

One way to cope with this is to allow the fact that there are millions of small steps between bacl and white. All those greys - even if the human eye can't differ between them all. There are so many nuances and it would be a waste to ignore them.

And it even gets better if we all accept that there is an incredible large number of colors in the spectrum of light.

And we people, our lives, our opinions, our goals, our pleasures and sufferings, everything that makes the human being, is somewhere inside this spectrum. So don't seal yourself, enjoy the colors of live.
