The Dali Lama reminds us that we are "Human Beings first." But there's only one Dali Lama. The rest of us, struggle with our demons.
As Human Beings - we are really good at division. Dividing old from young, rich from poor, elite from common, Christian from Muslim, White from Black (or Brown, or Red), city from rural, male from female, straight from gay, Etc.
On our good days we see love, beauty, kindness, generosity, tolerance, brotherhood.
On our bad days we see hate, anger, selfishness, intolerance, jealously, war vs. all.
Most days it's a battle between the good and bad. A constant flux and churn.
