Reflections: Thoughts from a Social Transplant

I have come to realize that when I look at the people around me, I never saw anyone like me. I was in first grade when I really came around to seeing myself as different. I was teased before that moment but did not understand where and why that was happening. It was early part of the ’70s decade, and Vietnam was slowly coming to a close and people have come to misunderstand the Asian culture and that we were not all one in the same just like European people are not ALL the same-different countries, different culture, different people, and different thinking. 

 

We all have one thing in common. We are HUMAN and a very social group. With being human comes making mistakes and learning about each other.
