    Whether this definition is accurate or not‚ this is what the terms “race” and “ethnicity” mean to me: Race is a term that describes a group of people with similar descent. I believe race is determined physical specifications such as color‚ language‚ eye shape‚ or even things such as blood types. Human beings as a whole are described as the “human race;” I believe this to be an accurate definition as human beings (despite color‚ language‚ or any other physical characteristics) are all the same. Genetically

    Can you imagine a life in which you never try anything new? How impossibly boring! I concur with that which Ralph Waldo Emerson once posited: "Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered‚ you will never grow."
