On people and culture


When you meet somebody from a different, unknown culture you are bound to ask yourself at some point: where does the person end and the culture begin?
Maybe from beginning to end, from head to toe, from the capital letter to the dot at the end of the sentence it is not the person that is speaking, but a new and fascinating culture?
Maybe it is not the other person that becomes your world, but the other persons world that becomes your own?
