The Dignity of Difference

Give us respect for ourselves
We are all the same flesh and blood
Contained in skin and held on bones
Recognise and enjoy the similarities
Allow us the dignity of our differences

We are many races
With wonderful faces

Colours beautifully varied
Every tone rich and warm

The languages we speak do not define
They give a voice to allow us to shine

Sexual orientation is our own
Let us freely be who we are

Spirituality should radiate peace and unity
We are one world joined only through humility

A leading muslim intellectual being interviewed summed it up well I thought
Difference is a gift
Difference is a problem too!

Thanks
