Is it okay to be quiet?


When I was ten years old, I thought the best way to life peacefully was to never disagree with anyone but even when I didn’t talk with my classmates, they bother me because my last name Herrera, they make a lot of funny rhymes that didn’t hurt me, in fact it was very funny for me; now I understand that even when you don’t bother anyone, there will be someone that want to bother you.

As I grew older, I realized that never disagree with anyone was the best option, even when you don’t think that he or she is correct, cause all of us need to have our own opinion, I am not saying I always disagree but there are a few situations when I think different and I have to give my opinion, of course respectfully and understanding the idea of the other person without judging what he or she think or believe, this is what I mean when I say culture of peace, the people can changer their ideas respectfully and peacefully without using the violence.

People should start to understand that not all they think is correct or everyone should think like them they have to accept that there are different opinions, points of view, ways to see the world, and they have to respect all of them.
