Question 1-What does diversity mean to me?
diverse:differing from one another
This statement means that this society is different from everybody else because some people is diverse with there traditions, beliefs, and ideas. ex: my family celebrates, new years, easter, independence day, holloween, thanksgiving, and also christmas. my friend cee cee doesn't celebrate any of these traditions because they are diverse they do not celebrate any hoildays because they are beliefs. In my community we help each other out and maybe once in the while we may have community service for those who need. Also in my school during lunch time people dont pray before they eat and it makes me diverse from them because my mother always told me to pray before i eat. Also people may not pray before walking the streets but i was always pray before walking out the door. my beliefs that i tell my family that i love them before to go anywhere and also before i go to bed and i also pray before i go to bed.My beliefs makes me diverse from people because they may not do the thing i do they might do it different. thats my meaning for diverse

Remember to quote words that aren't your own. I love your examples about different holidays. You really focused on diverse religions and I find that very interesting and unique. What other types of diversity are there outside of beliefs?
i need more info to respond to your question
