Are We Really That Different

Are we really that different? Most of us have two hands, Most of us have two feet. We might have made different life plans, We're probably never meet. But are we really that different? We all got dreams, We all got feelings, Maybe different lifestyle's it may seem, But we all need healings. Are we really that different? Age may cause a separation, But our never aging hearts make the restoration. Each of us have fought with our emotional monsters.... They seen to have gotten stronger. We have waged battles that was dangerous, And wrestled with love that made us delirious. None of us are ready to see the grave, All of us want to be saved, And to belong is what we crave. So tell me are we really that different?

I work as an ESL instructor in a community college and meet people from all over the world. I have found that people have basically the same needs and fears everywhere as you point out so clearly in this ode. Peace & Love Matthew Anish

Thank you I really enjoyed, I really never thought we were different until I got older, but yes, we are all different even though we look alike. eve
