Sadie’s CornerDiversity: the state of having
people who are different races orwho have different cultures in agroup or organization(Merriam-Webster).
We certainly are a diverse groupof residents, family members andstaff at Belmont Village. Everytime I speak to a group of staff,I am shocked at the variedbackgrounds, the nationalities,and the cultural heritage varietythat each of us brings to BelmontVillage. It is the same for ourresidents. Aside from the obviousreligious differences (we areapproximately 50% Jewish, 50%Christian), we have people fromall over the world who callBelmont Village home.
I asked the staff to tell me inwhat ways we are different fromone another. I got answers likereligion, nationality and age.Among our residents, we haveresidents in their 60s and some intheir 90s (that’s a 30-year timespan), some of you were soldiersin the war, some went touniversity, some are democrats,and some republicans. It is clearthat each of us is different fromone another, but it is ourdifferences that make us stronger,that unify us as a group.
I found an old book entitled,Your Neighbor Celebrates by
Arthur Gilbert and Oscar Tarcov.In it I found a beautiful passageI’d like to share. “Here in America,we do not let our different beliefskeep us from living in peace andharmony with our neighbor. Allour religions insist that we respectthe dignity of man, and treat ourneighbors as brothers. We are allcreated by one God. This religiousconcept of the brotherhood ofman under the fatherhood of Godis basic to our Americandemocracy. It is the idea that hasenabled Americans of many races,religions and ethnic origins towork together and build a justsociety. Each individual, in hisown way, has contributed toAmerica, and it is thecontributions of all that havemade America strong.” It is theindividual contributions of eachresident and staff member thatmake Belmont Village a warm andwelcoming place to live. Thankyou for bringing your uniquenessto Belmont Village. Individually,we are small; together weare strong.
Did You Know?Column by
Ginny M. and Sophie S.
In Webster’s dictionary theword, Quote is described asfollows: to repeat or reproduce thewords of.
Why are we so compelled toquote other people’s words andsayings? We possibly enjoy thisbecause they succinctlysummarize our thoughts andfeelings about life. They caninspire us, move us and motivateus to enhance our own lives.
We have included somenoteworthy quotes from famouspeople to inspire you!
Maya Angelou-“I’ve learned thatpeople will forget what you said,people will forget what you did,but people will never forget howyou made them feel.”
Franklin Delano Roosevelt-“Dosomething. If it works, do more ofit. If it doesn’t, try somethingelse.”
William Shakespeare-“There are3 people in yourself... who peoplethink you are, who you think youare, and who you really are.”
Anne Frank-“People can tellyou to shut up but they can’t keepyou from having an opinion.”
Winston Churchill-“We make aliving by what we get, but wemake a life by what we give.”
Aesop-“No act of kindness, nomatter how small is ever wasted.”
Lyndon B. Johnson-“If we are to
live together in peace, we mustknow each other better.”
Oscar Wilde- “Always forgiveyour enemies; nothing annoysthem so much!”
Eleanor Roosevelt- “It is not fairto ask of others what you are notwilling to do yourself.”
Leo Tolstoy- “Freethinkers arethose who are willing to use theirminds without prejudice andwithout fearing to understandthings that clash with their owncustoms, privileges or beliefs. Thisstate of mind is not common butit is essential for right thinking.”
Wayne Dyer- “When you judgeanother, you do not define them,you define yourself.”
In closing, quotes help us all toidentify with the author in somesmall way. They make us feel ahuman connection throughwords, whether they are seriousand profound, or humorous likeWoody Allen. Enjoy his closingquote!
Woody Allen-“There are worsethings than death. Have you everspent an evening with aninsurance salesman?”
Maya Angelou was and still is aninspiration through her words and
actions.
Life’s Great at theCoast!
