The world is full of good people 
The world is full of bad people 

Life sucks
Life is great 

You can’t trust anyone 
You can trust everyone 

They’ve all alike 
They’re all different 

How many times have we said it
How many times have we heard it 
There are countless examples of
absolutes
A convenient way -paint brush descriptions
One stroke describes it all
If for convenience perhaps for anger
stemming from an experience directly 
related to the subject  or simply an anger reflex
In our complex world with instant knowledge and communication we are 
flooded continually with these elements 

In our daily lives we are confronted with the ebb and flow of varied-changing situations  
There is always a balance of positives 
and negatives 
The scale can be-and often is-tipped in one way or another causing our emotions and behavior to shift accordingly

Our rational can be affected to the 
 point of “absoluteitis”disregarding individuality 

There is ABSOLUTELY a fair and accurate use of this
But only when it’s identifying specifics
No one wants to be in the one-stroke ID
We all deserve better 
             DONT WE?
