Let us all be great...

You vs. Me.

Your gender vs. My gender.

Your religion vs. My religion.

Your thoughts vs. My thoughts.

This is how the world seems to be spinning currently. A compulsion to find one, just one absolute version of everything.

Can all the variety of life be captured in just one singularity? Can the tastes of all different fruits be summarized into one? Or the fragrance of all the flowers in one?

The earth inherently promotes multiplicity. The trees, the animals, the seasons. Each variant has its own role and no other can compensate for it.

Then, how can we, a small portion of the entire life on earth, be so presumptuous so as to believe that we can possibly find one representative element for each category we debate upon?

Why can't we celebrate the differences, the variety and be glad that we all are unique, each of us a masterpiece.

Let's be great, both you and me. Let's not fear each other for we are different, in gender, in religion or in our thoughts. Let's enjoy the delight of experiencing something more than what we have on our own.

And if singularity is what we so desperately seek, let's find it in peace, practice it in compassion and cherish it in love.
