I have been fortunate enough to have lived in a few different countries, the US, the UK, The Indian SUb Continent and of course Australia! My time in the USA showed me that Americans can be very naive about the rest of the world. In Australia we learnt World History, in America i was taught American History in High School. The horror that happens in the USA shows that their is such a huge divide between citizens. I think Americans, of all class, race, creed, should be encoraged to read world newspapers, watch world news,travel abroad if money allows (Perhaps they could follow the UK 'Gap' year model and broaded the horizons of youn Americans). Then maybe we won't have horrible greed and conflict like we have in the Middle east currently. I am not saying we are Perfect, far from it. The Australian Government has followed along quite quickly with that conflict, but every friend i have has travelled overseas, has friends of different race and tollerance to others.... there has to be a better way.. we must be all able to live harmoniously
Honestly.. what is it?? That we are soooo busy in our lives that we don't have time to take the time and get to know someone, learn to compromise, learn to love the little things in life? I am sure the Internet is not the right place to find love, we all rush through life too fast. Bring back the 50's i say!
