I&#8217;ve also observed friends and realized how their culture differs.  Getting to know other cultures really challenged my worldview at first because I always thought what I and the people around me did was normal and if it&#8217;s not like that it&#8217;s weird but then I realized it&#8217;s all just perspective. This showed me that people who don&#8217;t have a common culture might be regarded as &#8220;weird&#8221;. It caused me to work through a misconception because I realized there is no normal, they all are different and depend on different factors Use specific examples.  I used to think that Indian girls being in an arranged marriage was weird but then I realized they grew up on different religious values that shaped their culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/spainnos\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23805\/2021\/04\/2021-04-16-4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/spainnos\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23805\/2021\/04\/2021-04-16-4-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/spainnos\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23805\/2021\/04\/2021-04-16-4-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/spainnos\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23805\/2021\/04\/2021-04-16-4-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/spainnos\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23805\/2021\/04\/2021-04-16-4-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/spainnos\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23805\/2021\/04\/2021-04-16-4-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/spainnos\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23805\/2021\/04\/2021-04-16-4-533x300.png 533w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/spainnos\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23805\/2021\/04\/2021-04-16-4.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>This artifact shows the flash cultura videos I mentioned.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Engaging in Communities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to engage in your community so you can have a positive impact on people and the environment.
