August 18, 2011


When we celebrate and relish our cultural and ethnic differences, we will discover we have more in common than what we might at first recognize. Sharing our arts and cuisines can serve to highlight those aspects of each that reflect our similarities. As we enjoy what each of us can bring to the table, both figuratively and literally, we can begin to acknowledge that we are far more similar than we are different. For example, corn, squash, and beans—known as The Three Sisters in Native American cultures—are ingredients that are deliciously utilized in cuisines around the world. When we enjoy the similarities in our diversity, we strengthen our connections through the energy of love. Namaste!
