For healthy lovers within the contexts of various on- going conflicts there are very often MANY complementary considerations which include the following ones: 1. Will both personal and communal integrity grow? 2. Will people become more free to be open & honest? 3. Will powerful people gain at the expense of vulnerable people; e.g., at the expense of people who are: children, women, elderly, sick, dis-eased, imprisoned, thirsty, naked, homeless, poor, powerless, confused, ignorant, uneducated, handicapped, etc? 4. Will additional people enjoy security known as the freedom to be safely vulnerable within open and honest relationships which are characterized by: balance, mutuality, power-sharing, mutual respect, prudent tolerance, shared information, cooperation, etc? 5. Will more people learn from their own and each other's experiences in ways which will help them truly resolve conflicts so that all participants enjoy together the sweet fruits of their conflict resolutions? 6. Will additional people become more responsive to each other's various: needs, experiences, understandings, perceptions, values, ideals, dreams, visions, hopes and aspirations? 7. Will more dilemmas be dealt with in ways which are open, honest, and help to build cooperative communities? 8. Will collusive games of mutual self deception be: exposed for what they are, understood, named, described, transcended, escaped, and subverted? 9. Will hierarchical power structures, cast systems, cliques, gang-wars and terrorists-groups --- grow or decline? 10. Will people be forgiven, liberated, healed, reconciled, and empowered to fulfill their complementary potentials? (c) 2005 by Paul A.
