Hello,

Not everyone has your introspective awareness. I suspect it has a lot to do with being subject to bias and prejudice yourself. I see more tolerance and acceptance from my gay friends, my friends who are in biracial marriages and my disabled friends.

I would like to say that maturity and education brings tolerance but that’s not always the case. It’s also hard to break away from the rigid mindset of your parents. This is where education is crucial. I see more tolerance and acceptance in my children and grandchildren than in my parents family. Let’s hope we can keep passing this down to future generations.

So great to hear from someone who seems so young yet so wise. Namaste😀
