Each one of us is an Answer

What a beautiful talk!

This represents my own opinion about various cultures in our world.
I do not understand the hierarchic thinking which states that the 'western civilization' is indeed more advanced and progressive than other cultures.

Every culture, as Wade Davis says, is an answer to the question of 'what it means to be human?'.
Every answer is unique and none is better than the other.
It is the multiplicity, the variety of answers, the variety of cultures and belief systems that makes it all so beautiful.
We are nature itself, and thus we are as colorful as nature is.

The different peoples and cultures are not the only representation of this diversity, but within each culture, every human being is a unique flower, a unique organism. Every human being is a miracle, just as every tree and butterfly and every rock are miracles.

I hope one day all human beings will be able to celebrate our multiplicity, both on a personal and cultural level.
