27. I wish more people knew that.
People are people. Why we have societal "norms" that most people feel the need to stick to so closely, I'll never understand. People are people. Imagine how much better this world would be if the true "melting pot" were allowed to do its thing. The diversity is there. We are just not able to break through and say, "Hey, we are here too and not so different than you!"
