Our Differences Should Bring Us Together, Not Apart
Facebook

I love to love. I love to love everyone and distance myself from judgement. Who am I to judge if I do not know all? I do not know all and no one does. So, judgement is not for me. It is not for you. It is for no human.

Humanity is the suppressed nature of all people. Rather than suppress it, let us embrace it. Let us support our fellow people in our endeavor of life. Let us strive for understanding through continued open-mindedness. Let us see the perspectives of others. Let us feel the emotions and desires of our friends and established enemies.

We are all one: friends and enemies alike. We must dissolve the divisions between us that inspire hostility toward one another. We must find neutrality. We must find hope. For we do not know all.

Our beliefs are not final. Our beliefs are strong, they are our own and they do structure and bring meaning to our lives, but they are not so for every person. For them, it is their beliefs that bring them purpose, meaning and a will to live. Let us understand these diverse wills to live that comprise the diversity that in itself is the solidarity of all of us as a unitary people.

And in this unity of perspectives, let us unite and be a people of family and fraternity. Let our values be those that bring us together as a people of humanity and equality. Let us let our differences that bring us to the edge of caring and love fade into the past as a sad but meaningful experience that allowed us to find our brighter path for a genuine and globally united future.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
