Why are we fighting to live when we live to fight?

First , the priority is to 'live'. And that has become very tough indeed. A number of things, beyond our control ,seem to make our living a very difficult one.War, Terrorism, Disease, natural disasters ... you name them ... they are all arraigned to make us fight every day to survive.

Once the survival becomes a possibility, we want to retain that possibility at any cost. . Having used to fighting for survival , we make it our full time to fight , with or without a cause.We live with this phoebia of attack all the time . The governments, the media , whip up our fear many fold and we are sucked into this vicious circle.

If you know something about the ethnic problems in the Island country ( and a beautiful one at that) of sriLanka you will know the real meaning of your own question.... fighting to live or living to fight.
