Storm Rider Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 Humans can relate to other humans when we listen. The feelings felt by individuals, regardless of race, are known to other humans. They are not unique to a race or a culture. My ability to feel comfortable is seldom the responsibility of others, rather it remains with me/the individual. Does a white person feel like they belong in a sea of brown faces when in a foreign country? No more than any individual of a different color/race feel comfortable in a sea of others. Who must adapt? I have found that waiting on the universe to adapt to me is an extreme exercise in patience. The universe just keeps going along as if I don't exist. The change, the adaption belongs with and to me. 1
