We are not identical; as individuals or communities. We are different; as individuals and communities. We do not, cannot, MAINTAIN BALANCE the same way. There are, however, some BALANCING PRINCIPLES. Healthy people honor BALANCING PRINCIPLES; but not all in identically the same way. There is room for creativity in balance. There is room for diversity in Love. Complementary differences are good. Differences and conflict abide. They are not essentially evil. Evil pertains to alienation; not to differences/conflict. Evil pertains to our sad alienations/rejections; not to individuals, differences, or diversity in how we balance the conflicts in healthy ways of living in Love. Shalom. Peace God 1 Balance cannot be maintained in the absence of complementary and complimentary behaviors. Balancing entails making changes in response to changing environments and circumstances. The pattern of balances in one time/place is not eternally good for all times & palaces. Conflict is normal and essential as such creative/imaginative changes are made; not essentially evil; not to be avoided, prevented, repressed, etc. Healthy balance is impossible in the absence of changing ways of rebalancing complementary ways of responding to normal/healthy conflicts between diverse ideals, ideas, visions, hopes, fears, visions, dreams, goals, etc. Cooperation is good. Do it! Love. God. 1 (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
