There has to be both for either to occur. It's also the default state that they're being put together by the living though, that's us.
The default state of things is that they fall apart. They just are, as a part of everything and are opposites that need and birth each other.
the bad, the passive, the dead, the negative, the regressing, the destroying, the killing, the backward moving, the unknown, deception, chaos, humans, god. the good, the active, the living, the positive, the evolving, the creating, the growing, the forward-moving, the known, truth, order, god, humans. There are infinite words to describe these two fundamental opposites: This was also the research of Scar's brother. Now, if we break down this single everything back into its first components we are left with 2 forces, orientations, flows of the world, ways of behavior, or whatever you want to call them. We perceive ourselves as individuals but are ultimately made of a single, great everything, sometimes called the world or the universe, or god, or one, or all, or truth. On the highest level, there is only one, which is all. Our body, our society, the food chain, our planet, our galaxy. This organism, in turn, is also part of a bigger organism and so on. Everything we think we are is an effect of evolution in form of a single organism inside a much greater, bigger organism. That's what the Elric Brothers discover on the island. We need air around us to breathe, we eat other living organisms to sustain ourselves and eventually sustain other organisms with ours after we die. We're not cut off from the outside world we move in, we're a part of it. The answer is, it's not found only within us. We might argue it's our consciousness, but the same question still applies. If our answer is "all interdependent parts of my body", we're still left with the question of who "you" in "your body" is. If we look inside ourselves and ask who we truly are, we'll soon realize that we can't answer that question. I think to understand this we have to grasp the concept of the world of Fullmetal Alchemist itself. He has no physical form and exists only metaphysically within the mind of each alchemist. So, what exactly is Truth? He is a vengeful, godlike being, who is linked to God, and governs all alchemical exchanges performed by alchemists. Their minds can only absorb so much, but enough is clear that they are able to perform their alchemy without requiring a transmutation circle. When an alchemist pays the toll and is forced through the Gate by Truth (and by God), they are shown all knowledge about alchemy. 
( The Gate, Truth sitting in front, and God within it. While it is certain that they are linked in some way, God is the entity that lies within the domain of the Gate (the eye and mass of black hands that restrain his "victims"). However, it is important to realize that Truth is not God. Hera was known for her jealous and vengeful nature, most notably against Zeus's lovers and offspring, but also against mortals who crossed her, such as Pelias. It has also been compared to gods in other mythos, such as Hera, a Greek goddess who was known to vengefully challenge heroes. In these ways, Truth is somewhat symbolic of God. He essentially exists in order to prevent humans from "playing God" with alchemy when human transmutation is performed, for example, Truth intervenes as it is seen as an unfair (inequivalent) exchange. Truth is a being that has no physical form, and a being that regulates all alchemical exchanges that take place. I am the truth of your despair, the inescapable price of your boastfulness. So, of course, this also means that I am you. Who am I? One name you might have for me is the world, or you might call me the universe, or perhaps God, or perhaps the Truth.
