I don't know how to explain this but I'll try my best.

You ever think that some identities we create to separate ourselves are empty and meaningless? For instance, do you ever watch an argument or think of the conflicts in the world and pretend that everyone is transparent, no race, no culture, not male or female, no government? Just human energy....

Now imagine that yes there are different colors, male and female, but attach no meaning to any of that. Dark skin is simply dark skin, light skin is simply light skin, a man is simply just a man, a woman a woman. None have a role to play that is separate from one another.

It makes so many issues in the world seem so misplaced because there really is no difference we are on equal planes of existence but we engage in conflict based on the lie that we are separate from one another. We get big and self righteous about our yings and yangs. We like to pretend that we are more ying or yang and pretend another should be just like you. But we all exist with the same balance of light and dark. People want to be big and stand out, why not mingle with the oneness of the human construct and stand out together? No more no less no better no worse

I agree with your point.

The other day I was reading that some elements in the stars are also present in the human body and it mesmerized me. It felt beautiful to know whats up there twinkling is also whats within us.

True, we're all one.
When the skin rots, we're all the same - flesh and bone. I once saw a medical book of my friend's and on its cover it had a picture of the human face, the structure of our muscles and nerves and at that point I realized that this is how we all are.
Its foolish for people to want to be praised for their beauty, when we all look the same inside.

That being said, I do hope people learn to be united.

I like this a lot and I do agree... I wish people could be less-biased but they aren't. The world can be a vicious place but it's those bad times that make us find the good ones. Same way with people..
