Colors

Colors are everywhere.
We usually have a favorite or favorites
And think it sad when someone can't see colors
Because they miss out the beauty of things.
We teach our small children or are taught as small children to
differentiate among colors.
It's an important skill that we must master.

We also are taught to notice sameness and differentness.
Another skill considered of great importance.

At some point in our education though, we acquire the habit of 
Prejudice.
We begin to think that Round is significantly less than Square
And Tall is better than short.
Or that white is greater than black,
though white is really the absence of color and not like black at all.

It is our pride that causes us to do this.

You see God doesn't make such distinctions or make such declarations.

And He's the creator.
He's the one who first called round, round and square, square
and tall, tall and short, short
and white, white and black, black.

So, yes, there is differentness
but not
betterness because of our size, or height, or skin color.

For God loved All the world...All.
