The biggest point I intended to make in my formal paper was that language can open you to many opportunities. The chance and ability to learn new languages brought life long friends into my life. The experience didn't only provide new friendships for me, it opened up the world!
I was able to gain understanding and insight into other cultures and beliefs through the languages I learned, and through the experience of learning them. Language is not just words, it's expression. Through language you can communicate the important pieces of yourself to others. Language connects us and lack of understanding divides us.
Go learn a new language, you will not regret it. : )
