coexist

only from looking at the other we can understand the world - even our own. The other shows you everything you are and everything you're not. And it gets to you. And you'd rather not see it.

But from the moment you perceive the other's existence, he becomes part of your history, too - and it's impossible for you to stay the same, even if you want to ignore him. Everything you see is also your responsability from the moment you do. Always...

Therefor, your existence can olnly be whole if the other also has the right to a full existence too. If the other becomes your responsability, it is also your duty to fight for his right to exist.

I'm not talkingg about tolerance. Tolerance is the worse form of reactivity. And these situations ask for as much proactvity as you can give! We need to understand as much as we can that the other is who he is, and at the same time, to act as much as we can to make sure he can be what he is, since coexisting is not living side-by-side with someone, but fighting for their right to be as much as you.

If you can realize all of this, do something.

The people that are trying to make this world less good aren't taking a day off. Why should I?
