Well said Apollo! I agree so very much with everything you said.

You don't have to choose one world over the other, not completely anyway. You can coexist in both, and I honestly believe that you, I, everyone needs to do just that. There has to be a give and take...you can face reality, fight against those things that need to change, but you also need to have space to retreat, to regroup, to remind you what you're fighting for, otherwise I believe you lose sight of the goal...we fight for peace, of many different varieties.

The answer is in finding the balance between facing reality and fighting for what we believe is right, and retreating so reality does not break you. There must be that balance.
