Cultural indifference is my ignorance

I used to think that life can be easier and happier without so many hard-to-remember cultural details, but I was wrong. Regional culture is an important source of wisdom and happiness, I was just to young to understand.

I used to live and study in many places, if I were more aware of the cultural details, I would not have been indifferent about the famous places, custom and personality of people from those places I lived in, and I would have thought and done things more wisely.

It's a pity that not until recently did I try getting accustomed to all the culture background I should have been enjoying. The reason behind this, I think, is that I had a false belief that once I "give in" to a specific cultural background, I'll lose my own uniqueness.

What a ridiculous logic!
