We live in a complex society where “it is self-evident that all men are created equal” is just a saying that is untrue in the modern world. First, it is obvious that all men are not created equal. There are many examples of this inequality: some of us are strong and some are weak, some are intelligent, and some are not, some stand out while others blend in, some are rich, and some are poor. We are not born equal but in other people’s point of view, we, along with every other person that has been brought up to this world, are equal to every other person.
On the other hand, I believe that we are not born equal but we are born to have equal rights, to have the right to own the results of our hard work and to make decisions about our own fate. We are entitled to decide what goals to achieve, what beliefs to follow, which political leaders to vote for, where to live, and whom to marry, but not all of us have access to free choice in these matters, and this makes us unequal. Every one of us is unique, and we all have different sets of knowledge and skills that we use as our tools to achieve our own goals. Additionally, we all face different trials or challenges which we must conquer that could certainly lead us to success in life. We are unique in many ways, we choose our own destinies, and we have our own unique paths to success, but this does not mean that we have to go through life’s challenges alone. We must share our knowledge, skills, and experiences with members of our communities and learn lessons from people who have faced similar difficulties so that we can achieve success together.
Lastly, while the phrase “all men are created equal” was considered to apply only to white men who owned property at the time the Declaration of Independence was written, it is now understood that all human beings are included in “all men. ” With this new comprehension, there are questions remaining about whether we are still following the universal standard of equality. Are people living in developing countries considered to be created equal?
In my own experience growing up in a third world country, it is clear that people living in a developed country have more chances of success in life and more opportunities to pursue their happiness, live their own lives, and live in freedom than people who live in a developing country. Clearly a person will naturally do better at something over another person. People are different from each other in many ways that make us unique. We all have different experiences, different skills, and different choices in life, and it is not wrong to be different. If we were all the same, then the world would be bland and dull. If we just learn how to share our uniqueness, help others, and enjoy our differences and opportunities we might make this world beautiful.
