How Different We Are

There are times when I am placed in a situation and I am forced to realize how different we all are as individuals.


We as people are molded first by our parents, learning right from wrong and perfecting the golden rule. We learn from the world around us. Each given different experiences to create the person that the rest of the world will see.


Relationships both good and bad are hugely responsible in shaping our preferences, communication skills and needs. Some of us are sensitive needing more physical affection and enduring words to lift our confidence. Some of us are strong and need little emotion to carry on most of our relationships. Some are used to having lengthy discussions to make sure that communication is thorough. Some are happy to think that less is more.


No one is right or holds more truth than the other, we are all just different.


We should really embrace the differences between us instead of finding them as fault in others. Surely we can all stand to learn a thing or two from each other.
