So, now that you've experienced my perspective on duality, I'd like to focus in on a particular aspect of duality: the Life Trip versus the Death Trip.
I believe in very few dualities, but the tendency to frame life in terms of it's dueling livability versus deathliness attributes is pervasive & hard to escape . . . . . . . . . This is a dichotomous space where I've made a choice. I choose life. Not in some lame anti-abortion way, ignoring the necessity of controlling our fertility & being happy that abortion is so much better than the infanticide it replaces. (Humans have always controlled their fertility, we just don't want to look at how that worked in pre-industrial culture.) I choose life in the sense that I prefer love over hate, positivity over negativity, peace over war, compassion over distance, empathy over indifference. I align with victims regularly, if the alternative is to ally with aggressors & abusers.
