TALKING ABOUT RELIGION~~

18^th May, 2011

Religion plays a major role in shaping cultures and even entire civilizations. If religion is so important in understanding people, then it’s vital to have an understanding of the different kinds of religions. What do you know about the major religions of the world?

Answer::         All religions are essentially the same. Religion is a form of one's belief in God and to guide us in life. Through religion, one's personal set up and taught how to use our lives a blessing to others. Even in this world there are different kinds of religion, but I believe there is no religion that teaches bad things. The goal all together is mutual respect each other and keep to create prosperity in each our environment.

THE DIFFERENCES~

25^th May 2011

“Our greatest strength as a human race is our ability to acknowledge our differences, our gretest weakness is our failure to embrace them.” (Judith Henderson)

“Much of the vitality in a friendship lies in the honoring of differences, not simply in enjoyment of similarities.”

Think of your roommates/ close friends. How are they different from you? Why is it good that all of you are different in some way?

Now, think about this in a broader sense: why is it good that not every race and culture in the world is the same?

Answer 1:: I have a friend. We're good friends for almost a year. during which I learned about the character himself. There are some differences between myself with him. The most different thing is how in talking with a very loud voice not only with me, but also with his ​​friends. I do not know the truth, but many people who say that speaking out loud is a form habits of people originating from the same area with him. While I was coming from areas that differ with him, very rarely to talk loudly to others because it is considered very rude. I often warn my friend that such attitudes are not particularly well done in public. This has been embedded in him so it is very difficult for him to get rid of the habit. Slowly I learned about him and try to understand and appreciate him. He is a good friend and always concerned with the genuine interest in others.

Answer 2:: I think the difference is beautiful and interesting. The world was created with people of diverse and different cultures. Of the many differences, we can learn many things from our surroundings. Differences are teaching us to understand and appreciate each other. Differences also gives us the opportunity to complement each other so our lives have a beautiful color-lovely.

Ans:: Basicly all human have a nature that called "ego". They always think that everything that they do is the best, better, more correct than others did. Sometimes, we just see something from our own “glasses”, while we know that something right for us is not mean good for others as well.

Q2:: What can you do to get a better understanding of what other people are really like?

Ans:: When we want to get better understanding of others, first we have to know them, how are their cultures, their characters, and then build the good communication with them. Everything will be alright when we try to know with others. Most important, don’t allow our self to be negative to the differences that exist in each other.
