a difference

by Tamara Cannon
Founder and CEO, Lille Fro Foundation

no matter in which corner of the globe you stand
what you see is Different

the landscape is Different
how you feel seems Different
the stars look Different
the wind blows Differently

we talk Differently
we stand Differently
our eyes are Different
our shoes are Different

our minds are occupied by Different thoughts
our virtues, priorities and spiritual inclinations are Different
what we believe to be right and wrong and life's justifications are just Different
respect for our Differences follows from a respect for our Indifferences

yet, no matter how far these Differences stand us apart
we are all born of this earth, we are children of the stars
with one thing in common
we all want to be happy, we all want to be loved

yet, how that transpires for each one of us
is Different
