Amongst the participants were professionals who had been laid off after 20+ years in the same company and others of similar age who had never held a job. It was a beautiful and interesting experience to see the commonalities across socio-economic backgrounds as well. In the end, no matter our color, nationality, faith, income, or what have you, we are all human. I look forward to paging through the Life Lessons...I have a feeeling they'll end up referenced in my own blog!! :)Therese Kay Creativehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09366538788045990338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3302107831896769514.post-31783999424760227342010-12-05T19:59:15.092-08:002010-12-05T19:59:15.092-08:00Galen,

This idea how our diversity doesn't have to separate us - I love this!<br /><br />It reminds me that beyond skin color, beyond gender, beyond location, etc, etc, etc - we are, deep down, united in our connectedness, in our one-ness. And that's such a beautiful thing...Lancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12347642337022150880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3302107831896769514.post-46957895921136951922010-12-05T14:03:42.689-08:002010-12-05T14:03:42.689-08:00It's so amazing to meet people from different ...It's so amazing to meet people from different countries, we really learn alot from them, some of them inspire us, i find it very interesting to make such friendship, to know each other better and to exchage many different and common stuff, and it's make me so said to see the so many bad things happen in some countries...

It was for me when I lived overseas, and it is for the contributors to this project. <br /><br />But when I contrast that with the recent events in my city, or with events in other parts of my country or the world, then, at least to me, it seems extraordinary, something to acknowledge and be grateful for. <br /><br />However, the more we can offer and participate in opportunities for this kind of dialogue, the more it will be normal, and eventually, a post like this one will never be written!Galen Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10189831838630645863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3302107831896769514.post-22386263176177408622010-12-05T06:40:35.164-08:002010-12-05T06:40:35.164-08:00People from all different backgrounds talking toge...People from all different backgrounds talking together is NORMAL.

I think if more people were opened minded, thanked their lucky stars to be living in a country that allows them their free religion, and practiced it in a civilized way, we wouldn't have to worry about having security issues all the time. Yes, there are times when it is necessary (unfortunately), but now you have to worry about safety just to go to a Christmas tree lighting.
