We are not born human in any but a biological sense; it is only by immersion in the “ocean of language and dialogue” fed by the springs of cultural tradition that we can learn to know ourselves and others and thus learn the ways of being human, say's Diasaku Ikeda.The power of dialogue can break many myths in this world. Julia and I met after 5 years and it was a joy to meet her at Warsaw. In no time we connected to all the beautiful moments we shared and laughed our hearts out for all the crazy stuff we did at Bidor. It was indeed a magical moment to remember. No formalities, no fake talks, no selfish motives, no hype of who we were and where we belonged... it was just a moment for two friends across the border who just understood the relationship of friendship and the importance of dialogue. There was everything to see at Warsaw and there are so many wonders of the world to see. But all I learnt was, no matter in which part of the world you are, if you have a friend who walks down the lane with you... you will never find any street lonely in this world. Thanks Julia for walking with me in solidarity and I will remember the main square and the streets in Warsaw where we walked laughing and sharing our lives.
