“Qui autem civium rationem dicunt habendam, externorum negant, ii dirimunt communem humani generis societatem; qua sublata beneficientia, liberalitas, bonitas, iustitia funditus tollitur.”—
Cicero
Those who claim that we must take care of our own citizens, and ignore foreigners, they break apart the universal harmony of humankind. And once that is gone, kindness, generosity, goodness, and justice are altogether destroyed.
Two of my teacher friends and their kids took us to a beautiful park in Hegang on a sunny Saturday afternoon. The only thing better than the beautiful scenery and the games we played with the kids, was the adorable 71 year old man we met. While walking through the park a man stopped us, through the translation of the Chinese English teacher we were with, we learned how excited he was to see us. He couldn’t contain his excitement!! He told us that we were the first foreigners he had ever seen and that today was such a lucky day to see us. His excitement reminded me how much China has changed in the last 70 years! When this man was young there was no way he could have seen a foreigner and now he is seeing a white woman and a black man walking in a Park in Hegang… That would only have been a dream a few years ago. His excitement made me realize how much the world is changing and how travel can bring so much joy to others.
