8 ♐ Text ♐ Shadows: some hide, others reveal
[At some time in the late afternoon, near evening, an anonymous message appears on the network.]
Hello Vatheon.
I was hoping a discussion could be had on a few things.
The topic is Ignorance and Perspective.
It is a very easy thing to categorize two different sides into ideas of good and evil, or right and wrong.
That kind of view sinks into society and can blind them from seeing things clearly no matter which side an individual is on.
A soldier on the opposing side is more than just an enemy to be extinguished even if you cannot see it.
They are doing a job and trying to protect those close to them.
They are trying to survive.
They are trying to do the best they can for themselves which is all any individual could want.
To deviate from their path could make their whole life seem worthless up to that point.
How much does it take before ignorance is no longer an excuse?
In a world where you are taught to trust few because there is no telling who will betray you, how can you let go to trust the words of another, especially one who is claimed to be the worst enemy you would ever know?
What if their words seem to make some sort of sense that goes against all you have fought for your entire life?
Could you betray the trust, affection, and lives of your comrades, people you have known for years, just because of a moment of doubt?
If you work with only what you know, what perhaps you are allowed to know, yet you do the best you can, how much does that exempt you?
Finally, if the side that opposed you offers forgiveness for what you have done to them, what would you do?
Please feel free to deviate slightly from the questions asked.
All you need to do is more or less stay on the idea of ignorance and perspective.
