"We all have the same roots and we are all branches of the same tree." -Aang (Avatar: The Last Airbender)
There are so many things in this short life of ours that separates ourselves from the society around us. Wether it be age, sex, skin color, sexuality, or just somebody's personality we distance ourselves from people who we don't see as similar to ourselves. It's in these times of separation and distance that it is most important to remember that we are all human and we come from the same tree of life that everybody else on the planet does. Although a lot of the times it's hard to remember, the people that we coexist with are realistically a lot more similar to us than we'd like to believe.
