So is a forlorn heart less blue
just because its bearer’s passport is colored green
or human blood less crimson too,
as per different weathered pigments on their skin?
Why should I be more favored by the God,
just because my father was circumcised
or less because my mother had to put
a pinch of rogue vermilion on her head?
Does a herd abandoned deer shiver less
just because its in the warm Savannah
and does a trampled soul find the numbers safe
in the cruel stampede of a fleeting crowd?
.
Amit, this represents how we must try to bridge our miniscule differences and become closer and if possible One. ~ Robin

I agree culture, skin colour, hair, whatever. It shouldn’t matter. We’re all human and shouldn’t judge by those standards.

thank you! yes, specially so as all those differences are determined by only 0.1% of our DNA… the remaining 99.9% are identical.

This was lovely! Very profound. Contrapositions, what a great word that is.

thank you! yes the concept is interesting too… it says if A implies B then not A also implies not B or in brief every A is in a superset B…
