The difference between good and evil... is there one? I do not know how other people think, but I believe, very strongly, that good and evil are a pair, not opposites. I have extensively studied the human mind, how we think and what we do. But what I found in that mass in our heads is something unexpected, but obvious. We are governed by emotion. happiness and sadness, love and hate, fear and anger, I found that these emotions are tied together in a way we could never have expected. I have found that it is impossible to be happy without feeling sad, that love and hate build the relationships equally.
We have always written our stories with the classic good and evil, and we characterize good with love, and evil with hate. but the one thing we absolutely cannot have is one without the other. And maybe once people learn to control the hidden double emotions, we would have less evil and more good. But the evil is good, by perspective.
If we look back to the World Wars, we can clearly see that both sides of the conflicts not only portray the other as evil, but they truly believe it. But the truth is, they fell into the trap that makes good and evil seem so polar. to the outside world watching in, these conflicts look no more than kittens playing. Kittens play with each other because they love playing, wars are fought because the sides hate each other. But these two events fit together so well, that you could say the sides of the wars love fighting the other and the kittens hate not playing. And if everything is a battle, then sometimes you are your own enemy, and both sides are good.
But sometimes we see things in such a biased light that it is almost impossible to find who is right. The best place to look is inside yourself. Look for that love, that hate, that hidden emotion, and know, that deep down, there is no more good or evil than there are emotions, that there is no logic and no rhythm. The only thing that controls is logical thought.
