Everyone would benefit from "Just be kind to everyone"

In terms of language that means I should try not to use words that would offend anyone. It also means that others should assume I don't know everything and kindly inform me when I inadvertently use some offencive word.

Kindness works best when it is a two way street. There needs to be some ballance.

I don't have the experience of having grandparents or great grandparents or even great great grandparents who were born in some other country. I have been told that family before that came from Scotland. It certainly never occurred to me to identify as Scottish American.

I speak several languages and have lived in a couple of other countries. This has probably caused me to be less nationalistic. I have driven my car around in Rome enough that I know the city better than Miami. I love that country and the people there. I would be very happy to be Italian. The same goes for France and driving in Paris.

I live in Miami now so I speak the language of the people here, Spanish. I have even developed a Cuban accent...lol
