Worlds apart Do you familiar with the sentence "worlds apart"? I'm almost sure you do, but, by the way, if two things or people are worlds apart it means they are completely different from each other. Have you ever thought about what can be worlds apart?1 When I was a child I was often told that I and my older brother are worlds apart. I think people shouldn't have said this kind of statements, they're dangerous! Such statements have an evaluation of things people don't even know! I have managed to understand it only now many years later. We are not supposed to judge other people, we must be trying not to do this! In this time we have a lot of socials groups. People are separating based on a religion, a citizenship, a nation, a sexual orientation, abilities, a profession... And very often we can hear "we are worlds apart" or "they are worlds apart". Let us be humans! Ok, I guess you catch my thought. I hope somebody will check it and write more appropriate phrases and words)

Worlds apart

Are you familiar with the phrase "worlds apart"? I'm sure most of you are. If two things or two people are worlds apart it means that they are completely different from each other. Have you ever thought about what can be worlds apart?
When I was a child, I was often told that my older brother and I are worlds apart. I think people shouldn't have said this, these kind of statements are dangerous! Such statements indicate a judgment of things people don't even know (evaluation is fine, but I think judgment may convey your intended meaning more clearly)! I have managed to understand it only now many years later. We are not supposed to judge other people, we must try not to do this!
Presently, there are many social groups. People are separated based on religion, citizenship, nationality, sexual orientation, ability,  profession... and very often we can hear "we are worlds apart" or "they are worlds apart". Let us be humans!
Ok, I guess you catch my thought.
I hope somebody will check it and write more appropriate phrases and words)
