Similarity among the cultures

2007/10/09,10:26

While it is easy to look at the cultural differences among people in different parts of the world, also easy is to learn the similarities.

I learnt the similarities from the movies to begin with and then by observing lives of people in the countries I visited.

1. Love, Helping Others, Hero saving the world, community from villain - common themes in movies - everywhere.

2.School system - despite some minor differences most school systems are same - memory based education.

3."Going to job after graduation" mentality

4. "Own a house, Have a family " goals

5. Similar government structure despite different ideologies

6. Handful of great people in inventors, scientists, idealogic leaders in every country

7. Insanity :-)

Many more can be listed here, but I will leave that to your imagination.

Thanks to all the producers of the movie stills for the captivating images. All these movies exhibit the strengths and the beauty of humanity.
