Life is like riding a bicycle, to keep your balance you must keep moving.

I felt so terrible seeing an albino teenager on a train a while ago. I watched him for about a half hour and the whole time, he kept his head hung between his legs and tried to cover himself with his arms. He lifted his head a grand total of two times but it was only 2 seconds before he put his head down again. Now, the reason for his behaviour could be due to anything, really, but I had a gut feeling it's due to the uninformed/prejudiced/ignorant people in society.

What if ill/harmful feelings were reduced/removed from society somehow? Would people be more forgiving and open-minded if they are surrounded only by such thoughts? Or do you think they serve as a balance to keep things in harmony? As in the yin&yang? Hypothetically, that's all fine and dandy but we all know life isn't perfect.

I'm kind of half and half on this. I mean, sure it would be swell if negative feelings in the world were eliminated and that would cause it to be a more peaceful environment, but that is only because we don't know any better. But it is a matter of balance, there will be the people in the world that will rebel agaisnt ignorance and negativity and there will be people who are the ignorant ones. Even if there is a greater number of one, it will still be in need of balance.
