We are steeped in a culture that thinks in opposites: rich versus poor, Muslim versus Christian, liberal versus conservative, people versus the environment. It is so easy to put ourselves inside a group we identify with, and everybody else outside. Us versus them. Giving in to that established default, we perpetuate the illusion of conflict and insurmountable difference. We continue the language of blame and accusation. At this crucial time in our human history, we need to leave that past behind and remember that we are all in this together, that we are one world. We have more in common than separates us.
