DIVERSITY
DELIGHTED BY DIVERSITY
A diversity of different tongues is undoubtedly a gift of God to the same extent that any profusion of flowers, of fish , of stars, lives, and all things existent are gifts of God.
There is a sad sonorous aspect to sameness that deadens, that dulls, as its opposite diversity enlivens, freshens, renews. I relish a diversity of gifts, of friends, of foods, drinks , climates, relations, children, books, faiths , seasons, experiences, and others' ideas.
I delight in my diversity of days, and in their assorted diversity of delights; each moment thereof being fraught with grace, meaning, mystery, power, purpose, work, joy, love, woe, opportunity, sorrow, perils, rewards, tests. puzzles, a diverse infinity of imponderables.
I delight in the diversity of ideas, that are imagined by people, who are the propagators of ideas. For ideas are gifts of God to people.
Without the diversity people there could not be a diversity of ideas, in which each is diversely endowed at birth. Each person's existence is a work product of a diversity of ideas compounding before birth, as were all parents' diversity of divine ideas before them, forever, into darkness.
