I don’t care what color your skin is, where your parents came from, or how much money is in your bank account.  Every single one of us has a purpose in this world.  We are one race, HUMAN. Each of us is diverse in our own special way. There is only one YOU. Embrace each others diversity. As I sit here writing this post, sitting no more than 6 feet from me are two gentlemen playing a very intense game of chess.  The color of the their skin, their past traumas, or their status makes no difference. They are two diverse human beings enjoying a strategic game.  It makes me smile to watch these two men enjoy a quiet night together.  Just to think that 100 years ago these two men would not have been allowed to sit in a public place peacefully.  It is amazing to me how far we have come yet I know know we have a very long way to go. I truly hope that when my grandchildren are my age they will be able to not even remember the time when our diversity was a bad thing. I want for them to not have to focus on the thought that any of us were better than the other, just that we are different and that is AMAZING!!
