Building A Balanced World

Author - Falodun Adeola
The WORLD is very beautiful and very diversified with 248 nations and roughly 6,500 spoken languages. Each nation has its own unique cultures attributed to it and people behave differently depending on the kind of culture they imbibe and assimilate. This could be in the way we relate with one another, raise a family, make a living, deal with expectations and express emotions. This uniqueness can as well be in terms of artefacts peculiar to a society, religion, social activities e.t.c. However, culture and behaviour is susceptible to change especially with the effect of migration. Appiah K.A in is publication titled 'The case for Contamination' says "Cultures are made of continuities and changes, and the identity of a society can survive through these changes. Societies without change are not authentic; they are just dead."
