WOMAN’S VIEW WITH VISION
January 28, 2024WHEN STRANGERS TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER…
February 25, 2024My final editor asked me when reading through chapter #20 of my book, where I encourage the reader to say something.
to someone today that moves him or her, because diversity needs a
stage.
The first stage is the conversation between two people and the recognition of a person’s valuable qualities. Each person is sure to have something that is outstanding, something you admire.
Share this unexpectedly. You will be amazed at the effect.
We agreed to add a note to this chapter. It reads:
**
Note: You might be asking yourself how I can have a twin-sis in Germany.
and a Twin-Bro in Switzerland.
While sharing my stories and interacting on LinkedIn, I came across this value-oriented woman, Ellen Maier, who greatly promotes diversity in HR role. We realized we share the same values.
Do not ask me when, but in our interactions, we started calling each other Twin-Sis since we are almost the same age as well. This threw people off, who then asked if we were really twins, and the reply from Ellen was:
“The similarity is amazing!”
Physically, we do not look anything alike. However, our hearts beat the same
rhythm. When Thomas Rychiger learned about this, he added, “And I am the Twin-Bro, because twins are at least three.”
We just love this thought: apparently so different and yet so similar. This is confusion perfected.

So let me introduce my dearest twin, Ellen Maier. I wish I had met such a person when looking for a job in my first years in Germany after studying.
I admire her clarity, her attitude, her values, her raising her voice when needed and thus giving others a stage, her not looking away when others need her, her creativity, and her moving stories and posts that allow others to reflect.
Thanks dearest twin-sis, Ellen, for your great support ever since we met. Thanks for sincerely contributing to the title and creation of my book, “ME, YOU, WE, & DIVERSITY. You mean a lot to me.
So everyone else, remember that just because we don’t look alike doesn’t mean we have to be enemies.
Value differences and identify shared values for a better world for our kids. Be open to sincere encounters and see the magic happen.
