Ana Coto Instagram – On this Ep. of Roller Rink ✨Realities✨ we are skating into unified acceptance! A 3 point perspective to increase tolerance of others because we’re family now 🥺
We all desire inclusion. Roller rinks hold a sacred significance to me because this acceptance is part of their essence. Here, we stand on equal ground. So when the rink rules appear biased, we take notice. Experiencing bullying for your beliefs here would be especially difficult. You’d feel like an outsider in a place that promised to celebrate diversity. Instead, it generates a sense of isolation directly challenging the fundamental principles of individuality and acceptance, and ultimately conflicting with the core tenants that roller rinks embody.
1. The Rational Viewpoint: Recognize diversity as a strength, not a division. Acknowledging & respecting differing perspectives or backgrounds, we enrich our collective knowledge & create a more inclusive environment.
2. The Emotional Perspective: Embrace empathy as a guiding force. Understand that every individual’s journey is unique. Allow your understanding of others’ experiences to deepen, fostering a sense of connection and acceptance.
3. Unified Approach: Merge emotional understanding with rational thinking. Blend empathy with an open-minded rationality to create a space where acceptance of others thrives. This balance leads to a harmonious coexistence, celebrating the beauty in our differences.
