No culture
is lesser than another and is the best in
it’s own right way. Every culture has
been left with a witness to teach that each
culture has truth in it, along with the evil.
By learning from people from other places
and cultures, we can multiply our effectiveness.
However, it takes humility to learn, especially
when the learning comes from another culture.
By learning from other people and other regions,
we can excel in our own.
Stereotypical attitudes are not avoidable.
What is avoidable, however, is the application
of a stereotype to every individual of a particular
classification.We always learn, sometimes
about ourselves, when we meet a stranger who
is a foreigner. We learn so much more when
we learn from someone from another culture.
If you are willing to learn, geography will
come alive for you. You will have faces names
and even relatives with the countries from
around the world. No one
culture has a monopoly on God. As culture
influences our values and perceptions, learning
about God from only one cultural point of
view deprives us of all we could know about
God and so, religion is never a deterrence
but only a little difference.
When all you want is a partner and companion
who shall love you for who you are
and lets you be yourself, don’t let
prejudices and negative attitudes take over.
Instead, let your personality show, talk about
the things that interest you rather than trying
to do something special to overcome resistance
to your lacking. Focus instead on your own
path to knowing the other person and achieving
the self-confidence that will naturally attract
a partner who resonates with your true
essence and the kind of life you
want to live.
Choose not a person for who or what
he / she is, but for who you become
and how good you feel with them.
Whether black or white, south or north,
people are people, regardless of their identity. |
