Generally,
People don't like change.
Change is a struggle to realign and readjust.
And generally, people don't like to struggle.
Struggling is too often seemingly futile.
And generally, people don't like feeling futile.
Futility is a rut that requires change.
People just need to stop doing the same things over and expecting different results.
Generally, that just doesn't work.
And when green hits head on with purple
And blue provokes orange to the point of breaking
Someone needs to stand up and help shift the paradigm.
And eventually you'll find that you have to drag yourself out of the feather down blanket
And speak about it.
Though what may seem more difficult
You have to listen.
Because even though strife gives us all a parallel experience
We're all still minorities
(And separation will only bury the truth)
It shouldn't have to be one big melting pot
Where we all get together and emerge happy and whole
Forgetting that unity is more of a puzzle you struggle to fit together as individuals working - a culmination of souls striving on the only constant, which is change.
It's entirely too unfortunate that, generally, people don't like change.
Just remember: change is easier once you start to learn.
It's a good thing a few people like learning.
