Diversity is Beautiful

While my husband’s Grandfather was still alive, I would often head down to his place for a few days or so to help him out. As I would prepare His food, there was a quote on his refrigerator by Albert Einstein, that read, “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” Too often we see this on a regular basis. To often we judge others on what they can’t do instead of what they can do. Can you image what this world would be like today if we all pushed together instead of tripping each other up by harshly judging them on their weaknesses? Just because someone does not have the same strength or even interest as you do, does not make them horrible people or even stupid people. If everyone was amazing at sports and not other activities such as music, art, writing, or other activities then live would get boring really quick. I believe we need everyone’s unique abilities to make life more enjoyable. I believe it is the diversity that makes this world so beautiful, and that’s the way our Heavenly Father wants it and has planned it to help us all appreciate everyone’s difference and their unique talents and gifts. Diversity makes this world beautiful.
