An article written by VenLyn A. Valdez: COLOURLESS
It is everyone's responsibility to learn ,grow and to be treated equally. This is a vital traditional behavior of one person to another and they wrongfully thinking of superiority complex. Mostly, when we discuss about colors, tribes, religious beliefs and cultural differences. it's quite a sensitive topic in a wide range of specification.
The years of black slavery is long gone and over. Yet, some people still carry out the same discrimination towards them that they inherited from their ancestors in some ways or another which being influenced by rituals and beliefs of other hoaxes. The lack of educational knowledge also appear as one of the many factors that this group of people continuously mocked and not by pointing them to the right direction that could lead to serious civil disturbances.
Colour of our skin, deformities and ignorance never define a person's whole being. It's very wrong to acknowledge such bullying behaviour towards our fellow human being. No matter, how high our status in life or how knowledgeable and brilliant we are, it's still not a ticket to cast our judgements upon others. Not because you're taller, and the man next to you is shorter, it doesn't mean he could not reach the same as you do.It actually means whatever you can accomplish, they could be very potential to do the same equally. We are uniquely created in our own appearances and capabilities. We maybe came in different countries with different cultures and faith, but I assure you; we have the same wonderful souls and special gifts.
Our fear of something not commonly seen everyday, like skin colour, deformities, LBGTs (men dress like women), midgets or even whatever their looks, we often laugh at them or made a certain joke neglecting to consider how they feel, our insensitivity and lack of moral understanding will make us heartless monsters. Perhaps, it would help to think ;"what if they are on your shoes and you will be in their shoes? I am not saying we should feel pity for them. "They're perfectly fine. All I am saying is, to treat them equally in some point that they must feel not an outcast but as the same with dignity and social equality.
I hope this article, would awaken your senses that all men are created with special purposes in this world by God, with equality of capabilities to love, to understand our own weaknesses and strength as men and as children of God.
The true colour of our skins ,reflect on how we treat others, by responsibility to respond and to protect those who cannot fight for themselves alone. By a manner of not discriminating people with unique and special appearances, we became a better version of ourselves.
