Compromise comes with being able to acknowledge that grey matter between right and wrong. I believe that there are certain moral principles that should never be broached. But beyond that there is much give and take.

Reconciliation means that minds must be opened. Reconciliation means that a sense of irony must be present. It above all means that “I believe what I believe, but I could be wrong.”

Beliefs are odd. Sometimes they just come down to perception. Doesn’t make them real. Doesn’t make them correct. Either it’s how you were raised or it’s a result of something you went through at some point during your life.
