Why is it so hard to accept some people? Do they do things differently than we do? Do they dress differently or talk differently? Are they poorer or richer? Do they make us feel insecure or lacking?
Did you ever stop and think that maybe we are missing out when we summarily dismiss someone simply because they are different or make us feel uncomfortable? It's true that sometimes there is an instant connection between you and another person but that doesn't mean that you can't learn from or even become friends with someone who challenges you or your way of thinking.

You want to be accepted and not judged unfairly, don't you? That is a basic need that we all have. If you can put aside your first impression of someone and try to get to know them, you might be surprised at what you learn. You might find common ground. You might be able to sympathize with their situation. You might find that they are just as insecure as you feel. Even if you still don't get along with them, you can treat them with respect and consideration. It's easier to get along with people if you can accept them, regardless of their differences.
