Many Worlds Exists on Our Planet

Cultural Differences Around Our World

Janet Dunn
No matter what part of the world we live in, it's the same planet; but this wonderful whirling orb is colorfully populated with many different species of living organisms including mankind. What makes us all so different but the same? Our brains are made the same; but we all think differently.

There are so many levels of intelligence in the human species and the differences in our cultures separate us even more. We are all different, but yet we were created the same. Each one of us has individual qualities that are uniquely separate from each other; even those of multiple births. So, where exactly is the real world?

As you watch people interacting, you see many different qualities and behaviors displayed by each person. When we give an opinion about people and their interactions with others, we each have a different way of coming to a deciding factor that concludes our opinion. What seems strange to you might be a real work of art to your friend.

Looking around at our world we tend to group cultures into their own separate categories; (sort of like a one-size-fits-all scenario). But as we begin to look at each person individually and examine how they think and what they think, then we begin to see many different worlds within our world. We are not alike not matter how hard we try to be like someone else, we will always be our own unique individual.

Imagine if all of the people in the world were the same. We would all be of one thought, one color, one way of life, one economic level, one opinion, one sense of taste, one definition of love; and the list is endless. There would be no need of law enforcement, government or education; and there would be no need of a higher power. If we all had the same thought processes there would be no new ideas, or excitement of discovery. We wouldn't have to think. There would be no ambition or goals.

Exactly where is the real world? I'm not sure it can be explained. Maybe it lies in the realm of our own perceptions or definitions of the word "real". What I think is real, may not be real to you. In order for this world to work, there has to be a variety of personalities, behaviors and levels of intelligence. And these qualities are scattered in the many different ethnicities and cultures all over the world.

We all live on the same planet, but each within our own world. It's like a giant bubble with tons of smaller bubbles inside of it, all moving about in different directions. And that's what makes it real.
