What We Should Learn

I believe that we should learn about the things that don't normally happen here were we live. We should learn about different cultures and different ways of life. In other words, we need to become culturally aware. Sometimes it is easy to forget that America is only one place in the world, and that there are many varieties of people out there. It is foolish to assume that the way Americans live is common amongst the world, for we are very priviledged when it comes to a global perspective.
I am really interested in learning about foreign cultures, with values and beliefs different than my own. It is quite fascinating just to think about how many varied ways man has developed on how to live. If these ways became more familiar to the people of our society, I think that we would have a much better understanding of the world today.
