This is a very beautiful story, full of meaning and wisdom. From a DNA viewpoint, going back many ancestors, we are ALL related. The most recent common ancestor of our relations is what makes us genetically related to certain people (cousin, aunt, grandfather etc). With the "variability" in DNA everyone would be the same. It's the same with the moral of this story. The lack of understanding of how our differences can be complimentary, not opposition, and can positively help others and vie versa, is what causes human suffering, bullying, wars and misery. Many haven't a clue what friendship is, especially in these years of social media, when adding friends is almost an automatic thing, without having a true friendship connection. Thanks for sharing this remarkable story! I loved reading it.
