time first meeting someone with an open mind than first meeting someone with a closed mind. One of my very close friends named Hana told me a story about how she tried to participate in her grade 7 class but was ignored.
Her class was debating if schools should allow uniforms or not. Most of the class answered yes and started to describe different uniforms. They said that they should have short skirts and a t-shirt because it would look nice. Hana was not allowed to wear clothes that revealed her skin because of her religion. She asked the class on what they would do if someone would not be able to wear that type of uniform but the teacher skipped her question and went on with the class. Hana told me that she felt unwelcomed and ignored. She felt that she was not accepted in the school because she could not express her thoughts. Hana did not think much of this at the time but now that she is older, she has thought back to that moment and realized how others might not care about what you have to say but to say it anyways because you might regret it
later. In my opinion, what makes a person intelligent is how much knowledge they carry. There is not one kind of intelligence that is better than others. There are many different types of intelligence. Someone could be street smart meaning they know how to handle being outside alone. There are people that are book smart, so they are better at understanding books and memorizing the information in the book. Also, some people are more observant so they notice everything around them and what's changing with it. People can have more knowledge in one specific topic than others which make them intelligent. Every one of these “intelligence” are equivalent to each other. Not one of these are more special than the other because everyone learns differently which is unique.
