ACCEPTing DIFFERENCEs

Is everyone that you see not blinking because y'all blink at the same time?

Are they talking the same?

Breathing the same?

Is everyone's heart beat beating simultaneously?

No, not exactly.

The functions of the body act at different times for everyone.

No one person thinks the same as the one in the next room.

Human nature can be violent, ignorant and peaceful.

Violence is most often seen in war.

Ignorance is seen through hate.

Peace is seen through acceptance.

The violence in the world can also be seen as ignorance, people fighting over their differing beliefs just don't know how to accept other beliefs they may be too ignorant to understand that not everyone thinks the same as them.

 

Think about plants.

 

A flower outside in the open grows towards the sun, which is right above it, so it may go straight up. This one can dry out faster

A flower outside under a tree tries to go towards the sun but has to go at an angle. This one doesn't dry out as fast.

A flower inside on a window sill also tries to grow towards the sun at an angle, but doesn't ever dry out because it's always watered.

There are different variables that impact each plants life, but each have the same goal, to go towards the sun. Most people don't realize it, but all of us practically have the same goal whether we know it not, We need to accept that we must accept eachother, if we do that then maybe we can all enjoy life a just a little more than we do now.

I don't really know where I'm going with this anymore, but I hope you know what I"m trying to say.
