Two creatures created by the same God but with distinctively different body parts and purposes. Giraffes eat leaves from branches above. Bison eat grass from the field below. God provides food for both and neither has to become like the other to eat.
As we observe the animals and people around us, we're reminded that God made each of us unique for a purpose. One person's natural tendency is to look up and see the "big pictures", while another looks down and focuses on details. Both are important. One is not better than the other. God gave us individual talents and spiritual gifts so that we can work together as a body.
Human beings are the crowning jewel of creation, and we shine the brightest not when we see our likeness reflected in others but when each of us performs the unique functions that God designed for us to do. "Having the gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them" (Rom. 12:6).

One most important aspect to remember is that humans are all of God's children.
very well said redlan. one of my favorite pasalubong to give whenever i travel are rosaries. i guess kasi kabirthday ko si mama mary kaya nakahiligan ko yan.
It's always nice to receive a gift of "Our Daily Bread". You have a nice choice. The passage you shared has very profound in meaning.
Btw, I have visited your blog before, but I can't remember when. Maybe I messed my links up. I would be glad to add you to my blogroll.
