Similar and Difference : a thin line
Hi readers. I would like to touch on the topic of similar and differences. Humans and animals have always egoistically judged each other by their differences more then their similarity. It is indeed a very saddening news. Although all of us are unique (even twins), we are similar in certain way.
Human's difference are indeed interesting. we judge each other and classify each other which helps us to easily recognize each other but why not we use more of our similarity this time.
So many wars and battles have been fought, so many blood have been used because of our differences. any of these battles could have been easily prevented if each side were to take a step back and give way and use their similarity to work together.
Nowadays, if we are different, we can be sometimes badly classified by the society. Some of the worse classification and "splits" in humanity is homosexuality. They call each other a gay or lesbian and hatred have been shown to them. Although I am not a gay or lesbian but I sympathise them. Poor thing. So call the other as coward and there are many examples of differences leading to destruction.
Why not humans see each other using the eyes of wisdom, understanding and compassion. Why not stop differentiating because all you get to is either trouble or you might get nowhere better.
As my title suggest, similarity and differences are just a thin line. hat thin line is a thought process. It is only a step between differences and similarity. Why not take that step and crossover differences and see each other in the eyes of similarity so that peace and harmony can be restored upon this battered Earth.
I wrote this article because last night, I dreamt of a dream. In the dream, because of my difference, my brother labbled me abnormal because of the differences.Although this is only a dream. I felt the need to express myself and I would like to thank the dream for such an inspiratiom.
Actually, I have been classified by many people, including my own mum. She labbled me because of my hobby. All my hobbies are indoors type like art is one of my favourite hobby.She labbled me as abnormal because most kids would go out and run and play games like basketball, soccer...etc...all the outdoor games but I am always in the house drawing or doing my indoor hobbies.
By writing this article , I hope people will cease differentiating each other and instead, shown compassion and kindness to others no matter how different they are or their ideas .
