Human Diversity: Curse or Blessing
The world we live in is a weft with myriads of threads, as it concerns human differences. People think differently, people act differently, just so much as they appreciate life differently. The uniqueness of the human race vividly is highlighted in their streaming differences. And so differently, we have people standing out in character, creed and colour, of passion, taste and purpose. The diversity is such that one wonders how it possible that the world still relates in a considerable harmony.
The basis of our existential harmony and which is the pulling effect of our streaming diversity into a conscious understanding is in our appreciation of the need to take each individual for the person he is. This vital factor that has become central in guarding our world from the perceived disharmony it should be has had lasting effect where it's been seen as well as a negating effect where it's lacking.
Tolerance, the very vital fibre in the sustained human coexistence is key towards the continued unification of the world of human diversity. Our attribute of tolerance is the galvanizing force for the deep appreciation that the different individuals of our world must have and which defines our harmonious coexistence.
Tolerance is needed if we must live peacefully with others and appreciate that individual contribution of the different attributes that define them is needed to drive the human world into the expectation of a space meeting our needs. Tolerance is very much needed because diverse as we may appear, there's the tendency to be turned off from the other due some dispositions we may naturally as a result of innate differences be averse to.
That I do not smoke does not, in a world of diversity, suggest that there's someone out there that doesn't do same. It will be impracticable to relate and eventually tap from the other's resources if I look at him differently with such natural dissent as it with an attribute one do not reflect. It's unlikely for me to derive the benefits of the medical expertise of a Moslem if I am so much of a view that because he's not a Christian and different from me in belief, he should be treated with difference.
We need urgently to grow out of our skin of detestable difference and prod with further alacrity our ability to tolerate and appreciate people in their differences. Galvanizing the resources from individuals different from ours and pushing the bar to the level where it's neither creed, nor color nor one's belief and expression that matters but the good his uniqueness brings, we would outgrow the thralls that have seeped us these days.
Terrorism, greed, corruption are all effects of the intolerance exhibited by people towards others that are different from them in their ideology, understanding of life and commitment to living. The intolerance has sunk deeply into them to cause in them a disparage of what do not count for them.
Our world is big and diverse, the reason it is our world. Therefore, we must come up to understand that a unitary world is a stalled one, lacking evidently in spice and a cooperative commitment that stems only from inherent diversity!
