Conflicts brought about by clashing civilizations are inevitable. Those striving to defend their traditions or to claim leadership over the world always find themselves hurling curses and brandishing blades at each other — often while standing on the fragile edge of a cliff. Yet, whenever they look up at the sun — at the infinite brilliance of our clear blue sky, with fleeting clouds that never truly vanish — they are reminded of the many things that have come before and momentarily learn to quiet down. There will always be people who step up to tell the others that this is a new world where ice and snow are melting into streams, where the seedlings of life are sprouting, and endless possibilities await humanity to cooperate and explore.
