Let us accept and honor our differences as well as our similarities,

Because we are here to learn different lessons, our lives also show up very differently. One thing we do have in common is ... we are all learning and fighting our own battles; it doesn't matter how easy another's life may appear on the exterior, we never know what is going on inside. We all come in different packaging but inside we are all the same, the wrapping may vary but by going deeper we realize our 'different' lives are very similar. We all experience anger, happiness and loss.. we rejoice, we grief and we hurt.. we all struggle with difficult choices and decisions, we all love, we all lose and we all win. It is important for us to be accepting of those who may seem different from us and get to know them, by so doing we learn how most of life's challenges and triumphs are universal and can eventually look beyond our 'wrapping', the difference in color, beliefs, preference in clothes, style, etc. to the very heart and soul of the human experience. Let us accept and honor our differences as well as our similarities, always looking inside for those things that bind us and not those that separate us. we are all humans after all ; bound to make mistakes.
