“Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.” -Oscar Wilde.
South Africans are blessed with diversity. Having so many races, religions, career paths, nationalities, cultures and gender differences offer varying perspectives and viewpoints. This makes it easier for people to feel included. It's very easy for people to overlook or neglect the needs of others when they have no idea what's important to them. This is why diversity is important. Once you understand people's needs you can provide for them and engage with them.
South Africa's diversity has always been celebrated, but it seems some people still have a long way to go to accept others who are different and that they're living in a country where people are free to express these differences.
