on the london seminar…
lauren says:
but enjoying the work, which you do, it shouldnt be that bad
28-18-5 says:
yeah because i find global stuff interesting on virtually every subject but accounting
28-18-5 says:
which is the subject in the world that i could care least about
28-18-5 says:
except maybe anthropology
lauren says:
i am inagreement with the anthro thing
lauren says:
anthro is awful
28-18-5 says:
ive never taken a course in it and i dont want to ever do so
28-18-5 says:
but other than those two subjects, i love learning about anything from a global perspective
28-18-5 says:
see ive started to realise im not about globalization so much as im about globaling… or maybe globation
lauren says:
not making everything go worldwide, but having lots of markets everywhere?
28-18-5 says:
not about everything going worldwide, but about the broadening of man as a species and the recognition and adaptation to all of our interdependencies
28-18-5 says:
not just for the linkage of global markets, but for the understanding of humanity on a higher plane… peace love and harmony and all of that
lauren says:
yeah
28-18-5 says:
the more knowledge, the more we come together
lauren says:
thats quite the merging of worlds outlook, wallstreet meets hippie
lauren says:
i dig it
28-18-5 says:
like this guy in my finance class is from ghana, works for the finance minister in ghana… i was able to speak a few words of twi (one of the ghanian languages) and he knew what i was saying and was duly impressed
28-18-5 says:
i mean imagine going from africa to the us, and meeting a white jewish guy who can speak your native language…
lauren says:
wow
lauren says:
its the ultimate sign of respect and acceptance
28-18-5 says:
it sounds cheesy, but it truly transcends all national barriers and markets and speaks to a higher level of humanity
28-18-5 says:
cheesy like when humans exist in peace on star trek
lauren says:
lol
28-18-5 says:
cheesy like john lennon’s imagine there’s no nations…
