Culture in accordance with the online dictionary has plenty of meanings ranging from development or improvement of the mind by education or training to the product or growth resulting from such cultivation. In my own words, culture is a quality instilled in one's ownself from birth. Culture depends on various aspects and different exposures will bring about different results. A person who is brought up in China may see the world from a different angle as that of a person who is brought up in America. Culture basically moulds a person into a whole and determines how they will view the world. It affects one's belief, views, understanding as well as knowledge. It may seem like an insignificant occurence but culture plays a big role in determining what a person will turn out to be in the future. It identifies each and everyone of us. Culture varies as geographical locations change as stated earlier and this results in different cultures being born.
However, the world is mixing as of now and many people from different parts of the world are coming together. There seem to be no borders anymore keeping each nation apart as everyone from different backgrounds and cultures accepts each other. Everyone around the world today is not bound by only one culture. The world is mixing and therefore cultures are mixing too. Many learn new cultures and some even adopt them. Culture is what you learn and what you see. It is what you practice and what pleases you. Culture determines a persons behavior and how an individual will carry him or herself later on. Culture is important.
I am agree with you, I think over the years the culture around the word will be more and more mixed. Even in this days, I think every country has a lot of influence of others country.
