Abrupt vs gradual harvest

[Tenet Nosce]

The larger question here is... why is there an underlying assumption that there is a "versus" scenario going on? Why does everything have to be reduced to "this or that," "us or them," "one or the other," "our team vs. their team"?

This is Life; Not the Superbowl. There are no teams. Get it?

The ironic cosmic joke about all of this is the fact that the transition (whether abrupt, gradual, or in some way both) is all about the abandoning of binary thinking. Something to ponder upon.

For anybody who might actually bother to read my posts on this topic- they would clearly see where I am attempting to establish a both/and resolution to this matter.
