Description same same but different

It doesn't matter if we are in China, in the USA, somewhere in the arabic world, in Austria, Africa, Australia,..... We will ever know: in this red tin is Cola. We don't care about the language how it is written or how the surface of the tin is decorated.
It is simply cola, nothing more. We don't care what the surface of the tin looks like.

Now the question: What is with us humans? The same red blood flows thru our veins. The same bones are under the skin. But we do care. We care where we come from, what we look like, how we speak. We don't see the others as humans. We see Austrians, Chinese, American, black, white, yellow,... people. I hope this will stop someday. It would be a better world.
We are all the same, but a little bit different. And this is a good fact.

To the title: in the spring 2008 I was in Thailand. When you deal on a market and compare prices, the merchants say: it's same same, but different.

"We are all the same, but a little bit different. And this is a good fact."
This is so true. I often have this thought in my mind. Our shells don't define us! It's what it's inside counts. These days you can do anything to your body and change it completely. But it is very hard, often impossible, to change who you are or the way you think. But here comes a problem the way I see it. We say that you should never let people change you and make you feel bad about who you are. But we press on people who, for example believe we're not the same. Don't get me wrong. I'm all for equality and the same rights for everybody. It's just...a bit hypocritical of us in a way. Well no problem is easy and every medal has two sides.
And by the way: Excellent collection of Coca Cola cans!

What if change could be more easy. I tryed it twice, but no chance. But I realized it's not that bad what I am.
And no, I don't get you wrong. You are right. We will never get along with everybody and so do others with us. But I think it shouldn't be a question of nationality or colour.

And the cans. I got the idea after I came back from Thailand. I asked my brother to bring me a can from China. And he added one from Dubai. Maybe it is the start of a collecting passion .
