Cultural Differences

 Since the very beginning, people have disagreed with one another due to a plentitude of reasons. In many cases, people have different values and are often at conflict with one another. In "The Three Day Road" due to conflicting cultures, not only wars are taken place, but also battles of internal and external conflict between friends and family. It's horrible how simple things can change how people interact with one another. Moreover, how disputes cannot be just solved without violence and instead be solved with calm conversations. It doesn't always work this way. Wars have occurred due to ambition and power, all because of conflicting values and cultures. If only the world could take a step back and take things into perspective, that life is short and that people should make the best of it.

  1. You really kept this entry succinct, and yet it carries so much meanings inside. Sometimes it is so obvious that people from different backgrounds will have contrasting values and reactions, but sometimes, it is not very easy to accept that fact; the fact that the person is obviously different in some ways. It is when we try to ignore that fact the conflict appears. Through many experiences, I learned to put myself in other people's shoes, and therefore get over with the differences. Nice writing btw :D

  2. The is very true. Little things can just start out small but eventually it will they will get out of control. To a point that we no longer see eachother. It's only ourselves that we are capable of understanding. Nice reflection :)
