Difference is of the essence of humanity. Difference is an accident of
birth and should therefore never be the source of hatred or conflict.
The answer to difference is to respect it. Therein lies a most
fundamental principle of peace: respect for diversity. |
John Hume (18 January 1937 – 3 August 2020)
It is my firm belief that the infinitely creative Almighty made all of us different for good reasons and it is our job to cherish one another.

Les diferències ens fan especials, únics. Ens connecten amb la diversitat, la natura, la meravella de l'existència i el misteri de la vida, de l'Univers. Des de les diferències podem aprendre a respectar-nos, entendre'ns i estimar-nos... humanitzar-nos.

Well spoken, Paula.
DeleteDifferent is good and should be respected. Too much crap in the world because some people don't like diversity.
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing to add, dear Bill. ;-)
DeleteDifference--respect it and learn from it!
