Culture and an Open Mind

"Culture is the widening of the mind and of the spirit" 
- Jawaharlal Nehru

According to the Oxford Dictionary culture is defined as: "The customs and beliefs, art, way of life and social organization of a particular country or group" Every country, every geographical area, every people has their own individual culture. The diversity and individuality afforded is a very beautiful thing, allowing for the fostering of identify within oneself. Which can then invoke a sense of power of self due to feeling like one knows who they truly are.

However, lately there is has been monumental shift in culture- one that we hope will continue to bloom and grow. It is that of a global culture, that all humans are apart of- one of love and understanding. One that allows us as humans to nurture and enable one another, so we may feel unique and loved just as we are no matter what.  

What do you love about your culture- near, far, or otherwise?
