Abstract
The article "What Our World Is Today" reflects on the multifaceted nature of the modern world, highlighting the diversity in culture, values, and geography. It acknowledges the unique blend of traditions and perspectives that arise from multicultural backgrounds, such as a union between German and Turkish heritage. The piece also celebrates the natural beauty of various countries, from the mountainous terrains of France and Germany to the flat landscapes of the Netherlands, and the vastness of the United States. The author, Agnes Laurens, a writer from Bunnik, The Netherlands, expresses a strong belief in the
We all can see how wonderful our world is with differences from the cultures we live in, from the values we got from our parents, friends we have and the surroundings we live in at that moment.
When your mother is fully German and your father is Turkish, you have two different values, nationalities, opinions, ways they live their life! When these two nationalities come together, you see that something bloom very beautiful. There will be moments that you will see, feel and realized the moments they are together are precious, but also vulnerable when the differences clinch. At the same moment, they could come closer to see where they’re capable of as a couple. If they realize they can do it and they will find ways to live together, then this relationship is amazing. Possibilities arise.
It’s not only those people that make the world what it is. It’s also our nature that wonders what it looks like. Whether a country is flat or has a lot of mountains, it really doesn’t matter, but it is beautiful. In France, you have mountains where cyclists train to become a mountain cyclist. There are a lot of mountains you can walk in. In The Netherlands, you’ll find no mountains and all the country is (almost) flat. Germany has both, flat and mountains. The United States, for example, has a stretched country, big buildings in its big cities looking over it, lights in the night from all peoples living room staying up all night to do whatever they want to do. In China, there is a giant wall everyone walks on to see nature. Always green nature can inhale deeply. Austria is a country you know for the small houses in the middle of nowhere on the mountains and their walking paths between the mountains.
What I love the most about the differences of countries is that we can embrace the cultures and values. I am a firm believer to embrace it all. I think everyone should do that too! What looks the world without embracing all the differences, such as ethnicity? I think we will have an unbalanced world. I believe the world is already going that way. It is a waste. What you can learn from other cultures and values, you will bring back to your own life. They could have great values you want to implement into your own life. That is what I believe world citizens should strive for.
