Diversity

Today I am grateful for the diversity that surrounds me.  I live in a generally bland neighborhood in the city (white twenty-somethings), but I can still appreciate the diversity within that group.  I live just a few steps away from a Jewish daycare center and synagogue and, it being the Ten Days of repentence (between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur), I was able to truly appreciate the Jewish culture even more than usual.  I am grateful for the feeling of celebration that was all around, the feeling of community, the appreciation I feel for something different, the respect I have for a different belief and culture.  I am truly grateful to be able to witness this kind of diversity virtually every day.
