This is a time that meetings take place at the cultural and language center Jean Mermoz Saint-Louis on the theme of the encounter and intercultural dialogue. I must say that trade is not enough to feed my curiosity. These are some questions that still crossed my mind.
The meeting with the other allows us to exist.
This helps identify ourselves.
But why do we need to identify ourselves. I just ... I was born ... I studied this ... I have traveled this country ... I'm single ... I have 3 brothers ... I work ... for
When comes the awareness of others in the constitution of the personality of the child? So I know that the other is not me and is different. What drives us and draws us into the exchange with the other? From
know seems too light. To look may be. In declining
our own identity, our past is a way of expressing his desire to leave a trace, to respond to our fear of our own death.
It may be a way to feel alive. To prove that we really lived. There are obviously
several types of meeting, but said that these meetings and I am the first to say try working / traveling, they would not those looking for an ideal never found.
Sometimes we prefer the other when it confirms our ideas that we were doing it. They are like this, like-this. Do we not
us run after comforting myths. We do not take care of our elderly, but they at least they are still / again. We have so much forest to protect us, because we ourselves off the trees, but it is good to rescue Amazonia. I spoke with my neighbor the other day he offered me a pie, after which several days after I brought some fruit for his family. Our meeting, though incomplete, exists. Exist throughout the meeting. Who was my neighbor did in Montreal?
The other makes me grow though. I was not aware of what could be felt in a state of visible minorities. I never saw this as a child of an imperialist systems of recent centuries. My education is it always imperialist? To what extent do I know other before, to get in touch with him? Am I able to know enough through the media that I usually hung around in my home country?
What should I take to get in touch with each other?
Do I myself asked these questions on my real motivation to get in touch with each other, before doing so? The
else have the same motivations? Some are incompatible? The other
he means to tell me what they think in our meeting? Has it right? It gives he right? Does he know who he is himself?
And if his awareness of himself came mainly from what he projects the other of itself? And if that other interests had been very interested in the past to the point of projecting an image of himself that was completely false?
It says each language that dies is a way of perceiving the world that goes out. The other allows me to see things from other angles, with other languages that convey other values. Some appeal to me. Others do not attract me. But they allow me to better define myself yet. No verb "to have" in the national language of Mali. Not necessary to kill spiders. The fat in the corner of my shower will be one that eats the mosquito that was to give me malaria. My relationship with nature is what my society taught me. I am very determined. Are some cultures more open to others? share their stories, share their geographic locations?
This thirst for the other can it be sealed? In this case we can say that we healed the other, that one was cured by the other? The other is used? What I actually leave the country? Does it depends on my intentions before meeting?
The other allows me to feel different, but remember that I am part of a whole. Mankind, in its complexity, but its different in its need to consider one.
