I want to give priority to the similarities of people because people, by and large, have the same expression when they were born. Almost everyone will cry at birth, which is one of the similarities of people. There are many sayings about the phenomenon that people will cry at birth, and I prefer the philosophical one that “when I was born, I crying but lookers-on were smiling; when I was died, I smiling but lookers-on were crying”. It seems a little bit negative but it is also a stimulus for us, which encourages us to live a splendid but transient life. The opinion also resembles to the sentence in Professor Huang’s book-“No matter how long we lived in the world, the life for us is limited.” As for the similarities in mentality, I firmly believe that two different people may have something in common. Not only limited to the “mentally speaking, we all seek emotional pleasure and avoid pain”, different people may feel the same thing from each other, and these two people are so-called soul mate. I still remember the movie Mary and Max, which exactly describes a pair of soul mate sharing common thoughts in spite of the difference of age. There are also many examples in couples and friends, though they may have a big age gap. Actually, the differences among people may much more than those similarities. Twins can be different in many aspects, let alone those people of different nationalities. The most obvious difference is appearance. Despite twins are really alike, they are still not identical in appearance. The elder sister may have a mole on her palm while her sis doesn’t have one. Those women who pursue beauty may ask their cosmetic surgeons to do the face-lifting in the light of the photo of a pretty celebrity, but as we have seen, they can never be exactly alike in appearance. People are also different in characteristics. The husband can be impulsive, active and passionate while the wife may be rational, inactive and indifferent. Though they may have spent their lives with each other more than 50 years, they are still two kinds of people, that is to say, they are still independent individual. Because people have different resolutions, choices and family background, they will live different life, and also, boast totally different future. Maybe that is one of the factors influencing wealth gap. The rich second generation are born to be rich, while the poor in war-torn country are doomed to be impoverished. I’m not that kind of nature determinist among the debate of nature and nurture, however, I hold the opinion that the family background is more or less crucial to the development of people. Professor Huang proposed that we enjoy similarities and accept differences. Applied to the interpersonal relationship, the proposition is also applicable. Here is a question raised by many people- Which kind of people should I choose to be my friends or partners? People may be tangled in the choice of choosing the similar ones or the different ones. Both choices have their own reasons to be chosen. Those people who favor the similar ones believe that getting along with those similar people will be much easier and they will understand and tolerant each other more often, because they share common thoughts and usually make the same choices, avoiding many differences and contradictions. And those people choosing the later ones suggest that the same object repel each other while the opposite object attract each other (it is initially applied in physics). They think that making friends or dating someone who are similar with them is boring, and those different people are more attractive to them. They also hold the opinion that when they get along with those different people they tend to adopt the strong points while overcoming the weak points from each other. As far as I am concerned, the question itself is unnecessary because we will always have to deal with those people who are different with us. German philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz once said “There are no two leaves are exactly alike in the whole world”, and it is also applicable in human kind. People cannot be identical, and those seemingly similar people actually are not that similar with you, you will find the differences between you and them in the future. The best way is to seek common points while reserving differences, which is also the discipline in diplomatic relations.
