RE: The Search for Snow (Part 5 of 9)
I doubt they'll truly like each other if and when the unification takes place. 60 years of disparate mind filling, with different conditioning and programming messages, takes its toll. It has been the same elsewhere, too.
Well, thinking like that surely won't help. We have to hold out hope for piece. The old ways doesn't mean that it's the right way.
Not everything of old is the right way and not everything of the new either. I refer to the unification of Germany, and I have been traveling then quite a lot. Believe me, it was a tough rubbing time until the beliefs of the respectful parties were shredded to somewhat smaller differences. I guess Koreans aren't so much different as humans. Of course, I hope they'll settle their differences peacefully - it would be better for everyone on this planet.
Yeah, you're right. I do agree with that. I'm more of referring to the negative thinking from the old ways. That's not to say that the new way is perfect, because it has tons of flaws as well. I bet that it was a turbulent time. I couldn't imagine living in such turmoil.
