Everyone notices something about someone they are meeting for the first time, and form a pre judgement before the first word is ever spoken. Many of these precursors are, in reality, totally useless. Shoes, clothes, manner of dress, car arrived in; all genuinely meaningless. and the more seriously mistaken choices for this pre judgement are Race, National origin, hereditary background and variations of these NON-IDENTIFYING characteristics.
I make these references to make THIS statement: We Must learn, or relearn (because Most of us were taught at some point in our early education) to see someone FIRST as a human being, then study their eyes, even before we speak or exchange introductions. Get to know someone, as Martin Luther King,Jr, so eloquently put it,(taken out of context) "by the content of their character"!
