A warm welcome to my beloved readers, it is another day to share with you another insight. So recently, I got a request from someone to give a brief or lengthy article explaining harmony to my best explanation, and i came up with this.

Sooo...

What exactly is harmony, and what role does it play in our modern society? Harmony, in my opinion, is a connection or relationship in which individuals from many cultures coexist or live in the same place without harming or hurting, fighting or arguing with each other. Also, people from the same culture or society can have various perspectives on the same issue. For example, the new generation of teenagers and youths are particularly attracted and tied to technology, while previous generations are still unfamiliar to all of the technological advancements that are occurring at the same time.

A nation's ability to prosper is contingent on its ability to live in peace and harmony. The term "harmony" can be interpreted in a variety of ways. Harmony, in general, refers to a state of peace in which no one needs to be in suffering. For decades, harmony within diversity has been developed and maintained. After the World wars, humanity began to recognize the importance of enduring peace within diversity, knowing that only harmony would benefit humanity. Since religions began to spread over the world, the concept of "harmony" has existed. There is no religion that teaches its believers to wreak havoc on the world.

One way for civilizations(societies) to coexist or live together is through cultural borrowing, which occurs when a person or a group of individuals expresses respect or appreciation for a culture that is not their own. The dictionary meaning of cultural borrowing refers to the way in which one culture adopts or takes certain aspects of ideas and practices from another culture, ethinc group or religion that they come in contact with.

When a country is in harmony, the country is peaceful, and the citizens enjoy a longer lifespan. Citizens with longer lifespans are more likely to contribute more to their countries, and countries are less likely to waste resources. A harmonious country, on the other hand, permits its residents to live better lives, and as a result, these citizens can contribute to making the country a better place. Any nation's primary need is for peace and harmony. A nation's ability to prosper is contingent on its ability to live in peace and harmony. In order to minimize disputes and conflicts and to promote unity among its residents, a country's Constitution includes rules to protect political and social equality among citizens.Though the people of a country live in peace, the peace is frequently disrupted by political, social, economic, and religious reasons. Peace and harmony can help society maintain a peaceful and stable order, and they are a requirement for humanity's survival and progress. A world deprived of peace and harmony will undoubtedly disintegrate, reverting to the jungle phase, when the strong prey on the weak.


All human beings peace and harmony entails peace and harmony among all nations, ethnic groups, and religions. Meanwhile, it is the peace and harmony of each nation, ethnic group, and religion that makes peace and harmony possible for all humans.

There are ways on how to Live in Harmony with Others:

  1. Making connections with other people.

  • Participating in community events is something You like. This contributes to you feeling more connected to your neighbours like maybe a football match, ensuring unity amongst neighbours.

  • Be open and honest with your friends and family: When you're in need, reach out to your friends and family. Don't be afraid to express your emotions or hide your feelings from them. Instead, be vulnerable so that you can feel more genuine and genuine among those who matter to you.

    If you're having a poor day, for example, you might tell your buddies, "Today was a bad day." “I need some encouragement” or “I'm not feeling well today, and I need some help.”

  • Spend quality time with family: Make your time with your family as meaningful and memorable as possible. Invite your family over for regular family dinners.

  • To your partner or spouse, be more generous and caring towards them: Respect and gratitude should be shown to your loving relationship. Give them your undivided attention and acknowledgment on a daily basis. Let them know how important they are to you and how much you cherish them.

  • This can be accomplished by telling your partner on a frequent basis simply, "Thank you for everything you do" or "I really appreciate you."

  1. Getting over Disputes and Conflicts.

  • Avoid shouting or yelling at others. Try not to act aggressive or upset at others, as this will just exacerbate the conflict. Take a deep breath and try to respond to people rationally and calmly.If you are extremely irritated, try removing yourself from the situation and returning when you are calmer and more comfortable. 

    Allow both of you to relax a little to let off some steam so you can have a more constructive conversation that isn't dominated by emotions like stress and anger.

  • Be a good listener: Even if you disagree with what they're saying, keep eye contact with them while they're speaking. Maintain a calm posture with your arms at your sides and your body turned towards them to show that you are paying attention. To show you're paying attention, nod and say "uh huh" or "all right."

    When they're talking, don't interrupt them. Wait for them to finish speaking instead. Then, to make sure you heard them accurately, try repeating what they said back to them.

  • "What I believe you said..." or "What I am hearing you say..." are two examples.

Factors that influence or affect peace and harmony may include:-

  1. Terrorism: Terrorist attacks have been one of the key causes of the country's breakdown of peace and harmony.

  2. Religion: The country's peace and harmony are frequently broken in the name of religion. Some religious groups aim to discredit other religions, producing social unrest.

  3. Politics: Political parties frequently instigate people against other political parties in order to further their own self-interests, which disrupts state peace.

  4. Reservations: The reservation system has caused a great deal of resentment among the general public. Some communities have objected from time to time, claiming that their people, too, should be given reservations.

Similarly, crises such as inflation, unemployment, and inter-state disputes have wreaked havoc on society from time to time.

What is the significance of harmony in one's life?

Harmony, as a notion binds people and nations together, assists people in dealing with change. When individuals live in peace, they can share a wide range of interests and accept different points of view without clashing.

In conclusion

Finally, I'd like to state that peace and harmony are required not only between people but also between countries in order to make the globe a better place for everyone to live. Learn the genuine definition of friendship by respecting a country's principles and assisting them when they are in need. It will be difficult to maintain peace and harmony in the country until everyone becomes aware of our own needs and refuses to contribute to the problem. The government alone cannot ensure that the society is characterized by a spirit of brotherhood and goodwill.

Also, giving someone just a large hearty smile, whether we know them or not, is more than enough to cultivate a nice relationship with them and make their day relaxing and enjoyable.

Cheers!

I think that culture borrowing is the reason for the connection between the binis and the Yorubas. They both have similarities in their cultures and traditions
