Similarities
Similarities
Similarities can be defined as the closeness of two different entities or things or person in terms of their similar features. It is the observing of the proximity between two bodies that are not entirely the same. When two bodies are compared, they are said to be similar if they have features that resemble. Many objects and things can be compared for similarities.
There are diverse of humans in the whole world. No two human is exactly the same. Even members of the same family do not look the same. However, every human look similar in one way or the other. Every normal human being has two eyes, a nose, a mouth, two ears and so on. Therefore, there are still similarities despite various diversities.
Furthermore, there are several birds in the world. There are many species of birds in the world. All these birds are similar in one way or the other. One example is in the way they reproduce. Apart from owls, every other bird is oviparous in reproduction. Also, they have beaks for feeding and wings for flight.
Besides, there are various similarities in Every flower. Flowers are plants that are used to decorate and beautify the environment. There are various types of flowers like the "hibiscus flower", "flamboyant flower" and the pride of Barbados." Every flower contains at least an ovary, the ovule, and the petal. Although the arrangements of its components are different, they are still similar in structure.
Similarities are observed in fishes. Fish have fin, which is the most important organ of movement for all of them. Although, some species are different from other common ones. For instance, the whale is part of the aquatic animal which gives birth in viviparous way. Above all, all fishes have a lateral lining that makes them detect stimuli.
Proximity also applies to all kinds of animals. Without doubt, there are various kinds of animals ranging from the different phylum, class, order, family, and species. They range differently in their method of reproduction, feeding, types of food and types of environment they can survive in. However, some processes make them similar, an example is respiration, reproduction, excretion, e.t.c.
Fruits are developed product of the ovary in a flower. Everybody will agree with me that there are over a thousand species of fruits in the world, where orange has sub-divisions in various factors. With all these diversities, there is a major resemblance between all fruits, in that they contain three major pericarps: the endocarp, mesocarp and epicarp.
More so, foods are also very similar in one particular aspect or the other. No doubt, there are various kinds of food varying from a different continent to different countries, tribe and society. The similarity may be minor, but yet still exists. All foods need water as a medium for cooking and transferring heat. This principle ranges from soup to dishes.
In addition, countries exhibit similarities too. In every country, there is surely a system of government and the people that are being governed by that system. Though there is a different system that this government exists. It can be military, democratic (practiced in Nigeria), autocratic and so on. However, the similarity is that not all people govern themselves.
Even planets as much as to vary in mass, size, diameter and space, still share similar and proximal properties. All the planets are under the gravitational influence that draws them close to the sun. Also, they all revolute around the sun in their various orbits with a specific number of years or period. In addition, they are all spherical or geoid in shape.
All human beings are running from one place to other in search of something common. Some are going to work from their respective homes while some work from home. Others sell goods and services in their respective shops, but many sell from one place to the other. Some others do their online while some buy while predicting cryptocurrencies. This shows that we work differently but have the same target. The major reason for all these are to make greener pastures which is called money.
In conclusion, with all the examples discussed above, one thing can be derived from it, diversity exists, but similarities are also inevitable among all the substances including living things and non-living things. However, a good lesson to observe is that we should not discriminate against others that look different from us because in one particular way or the other, we may share some features in common and insulting such a person might eventually lead back to us; therefore, our similarity is a blessing.

A long time ago, there lives a family of four, the children both males and their parents. The name of the first child was Jude and his brother was Joe. The children were complete contrast and were opposite in nature. While Joe was outspoken and fluent in speaking, Jude was totally reserved, shy and taciturn. Everybody in their community knew that Jude was always shy to face the crowd. In their school, things were worse. Jude could not stand to talk in his class and this affected his education a lot. He was always coming last in the class and this even made him more inferior to his other classmates, and this made him totally down. Days passed by, nights passed by, but Jude couldn't come out of his shell. His mother was often invited to school to discuss Jude's issue, but it was to no avail as Jude grew up like that. The family would hold meetings just to make sure Jude becomes an extrovert. So, their parents thought of changing their environment in order to ensure Jude changes his lifestyle. Although, Jude was a shy boy, he wasn't too shy to reveal his talent on the football field. He was just talented as he always outshines everyone.
He was used to his local environment, but the decision his parent made was that they were relocating to the city so that Jude can be exposed. They relocated and of course things change. They all had to change school, but still the same result. Jude was still the same. He was just good on the pitch as he would represent in masters cup. He was then named as the captain of the football team. Joe his junior brother was excited that being a captain will make his elder brother outspoken because a captain is like a leader who talks to his teammates, but how can a shy person become a leader? Although Jude wanted to be a captain but how would he motivate his teammates since he was very shy. He knew things wouldn't go well in the team.
Jude was having a bad day after school, so on his way home he saw a large crowd gathering at his house he managed to find his way in, he then saw his mother weeping profusely, he asked what happened, he was told to go to his father's room, on opening the door he saw his father lying lifelessly on the bed. He couldn't believe his father was dead. He was only thirteen when his father died. Furthermore, he was the firstborn, and he knew he needs to look after his family because it will take his mother a long time to get over their father's death.
Likewise, he often went to school but was always thinking. Everyone stepped on his nerves, even after hearing of his father's death. But one day, everything changed. His teacher carried out a career test in the class. When it was Jude's turn, he finally summoned courage and told the class that he wants to be a professional footballer, and he was going to win a world cup. Everywhere was silent within a second, everyone busted into laughter condemning Jude ambition. He smiled with them but when his teacher said he should give up on his dreams since he was dull and won't make it in other countries, Jude got angry and threw a chair at his teacher. The case was taken to the proprietor and Jude was expelled.
Jude knew that he had to do something to make his family stronger, so he decided to train at home. He felt as if he was ever ready to take over the family. I guess his father's death made him stronger. Jude then applied a scholarship in the Nigeria football academy, but they rejected him and said he is not capable of anything. However, he thought of leaving the country illegally, not just the country but Africa. He told himself that all means he must be a professional footballer as that was the only option to take care of himself and the family since no one is capable of playing the father's role, he told his mother about his decision. His mother was against it,, but he stood his ground.
He had saved up some money before his father's incident. He knew he couldn't board a plane since the money he had was not enough for only his VISA. So he took a map of Africa and looked for the nearest European country as it is said that they value football. So, he pointed Spain out and made up his mind to go through North Africa, but there was a problem, he is to cross the Sahara desert. Crossing a desert is obviously one of the hardest task not to talk of using his gifted legs for the journey. So, he had no choice than to do it since he could do anything for his family. He soon arranged his loads, foods and bid farewell to everyone he loves. He left for the pack heading to Morocco where he could cross to Spain. About 7 days he was still on his way.
He boarded a ship that could smuggle them to Spain. Lo and behold, Jude arrived at Spain. A new beginning, a new era. He felt intimidated as he saw rich kids. He was living in hiding as he was scared of the police. Not only that, but he wanted to go back home, but he saw a piece of magazine written by Martin Luther King Jr which says **"Faith is the first step even if you don't see the whole staircase "**. He went to where he stayed and thought about it. That story motivated him, and he decided to take his footballing skills to the street. I don't know how it happened, but his display brought a lot of attention, like people in the vicinity watching him were lost as his skills marvel them all. He often played in the afternoon, he was sometimes given a lot of money and some volunteered to help him adapt by teaching him Spanish. On a fateful day, while Jude was scouted by Villarreal CF scouting team. He was so happy because he never thought of that, but his playful skills has caught the attention of the country's national team. When he was taken to their headquarters, he was asked about his parents, so he had no choice than to spill out how he got here. He didn't want to go to jail, so he was told that he would represent Spain to avoid going to jail.
Six years later after a series of training, he was called upon into the first team of Villarreal CF, but there were a series of challenges. He was so glad and tried reaching his mom after a long time, that was because he didn't have money for a cellular phone. On reaching his mom, he broke down in tears and narrated all that had happened, then he revealed to his mom that he was now a first team player, and he was representing Spain in the U-19 world cup. He then asked for his mom's account number, so he could send some money. When his mother told his brother, they rented a big Bill board after getting the money he sent and set it up in front of his former school and played a video of Jude representing Spain in the U-19 world cup final. Jude had a dream of winning a world cup some years back, so he needed to win this world cup to silence the people that looked down on him, his classmates and teachers. They have been playing a draw in the match until the 90th minute, Jude scored an overhead kick that sealed the win for Spain. That was a mission accomplished.
Jude was interviewed after the match about his experience from the beginning of the competition till the end of the match, since he was the captain of the team. In his speech, he told about how he had been captaining his family ever since he had been 13 years. Most especially, he talked about the motivational quotes he read about Dr Martin Luther King Jr. This motivation served as his energy boost even through all the hard road to his Success. There were many times he thought of quitting his goal, but he was always pushed by the motivations he received from his motivational speakers.
This 10-letter words just more than what it looks like. People who didn't receive it on time end up being distressed, discouraged, depressed and this may eventually lead to death. Be Therefore, if you are motivated by people, take the words seriously because with them, they can act as the staircase that will take you to higher places.
