Can Difference Mix?

It’s not actually a war of civilizations it’s an endless battle over difference.

Anyone who has experience of relationships, and that includes everyone, will very well know the work involved in that unavoidable human activity is immense.  We are all in a relationship of one form or another.

In an era of quick fix, doesn’t work for me, just move on mental reality, breakdown of relationship union is enormous.  Locally and globally, fracturing of relationships is gathering momentum at a frightening speed.  It’s as if our technologically smart selves, having now unlocked the ability to connect instantly with all of humanity, cannot deal with the reality and scale of mammoth diversity of difference.

There is no other recipe for the meal that makes up humanity.  There are no selective ingredients that will flavour enhance for general approval. 

As the 60’ song says.  
What we need is a great big melting pot
Big enough enough enough to take
The world and all its got
And keep it stirring for a hundred years or more
And turn out coffee coloured people by the score

It’s even more relative now than ever before.
