Imagine a beach scene with me. Ocean waves, powerful and majestic, incessantly break along the coastline. Nature doesn't see conflict as negative or positive. Nature uses conflict as a primary motivator for change. Imagine floating down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon.
Quiet water gives way to exhilarating rapids.
Hidden canyons with shade trees and wildflowers. Clear springs of drinkable water. Imagine solitude and silence that can be found in few places. Eon and eons of water flowing, continually wearing away the rock, carrying it to the sea, a conflict that continues to this day. It may be important for us to broaden our understanding of power.
