They’re just like you…
Its True…they live in another part of the country…. Speak a different lingo….. Wear a different attire….. Look different…. Behave different…. Even think different…. yet they’re like you…
They share the same country… the same values…. the same religion… the same heart…
They’re not Terrorists by birth…. they’re not inhuman…
They do feel happiness …and pride … as well as anger … and sorrow and Pain… Just like you do….
You’ve completely alienated them…. marked them as living Taboos…. Scornful pathetic creatures…. Living only to create hell on earth….
Its not the case….
The paradigm needs to be shifted once more…..
Get out of your cozy abodes…. walk around this country….. travel a few paces across the stretches and you’ll feel what treasures lie beyond your own kingdom….
The mind is a strange entity…. it wants us to live in groups…. Groups of cast…. color… creed… politics… and provinces…. outcasting every other who doesn’t fit in
But its only when you mingle with the dwellers of the far….. learn their language and talk to them…..that you get to know that they’re just like you….. Only wearing different skins…..
They’ve the same soul as you….. ánd Maybe more chaste and pure….
They wake up every morning looking for work just as you do… Only the work is of a different kind….
They eat drink and share their feelings with others… just like you…. and celebrate and cry just as your own crew members…
…and at night they try to find the same comfort in bed as you ….by closing their eyes…. Only that the bed is unique…
So stop judging people based on geographical and social demarcations…. Get out there and Socialize…. Only then you’ll realize what precious souls are roaming around in your very Country in Every social class…. perhaps equally intelligent as you…. Only a little less lucky!

This world was created with a rounded shape
no angle
because God wants all beings to know each other
no one can tell someone it’s much better than anyone else except God

“So stop judging people based on geographical and social demarcations”
Really interesting write-up. Its only when we socialize that we’re forced to treat people as humans and not statistics. It can be pretty unsettling though. :-/

Exactly. Part of the problem is that we have labelled certain ethnic groups as extremists or less intelligent without realizing the fact that all fingers are not equal. If only we treat an individual as a unique personality and socialize without any discriminatory or egoistic attitude, we can truly appreciate the greatness in our own people!
