Dicken's Book
I choose to read Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. Due to the fact that I love a good mystery, I mean who ins't enticed by the unknown. Not only that, but I am intrigued by the way people react to certain things, such as money and a current situation. Which basically just about any book has.
Great Expectations is about a boy Pip, who meets two people that will greatly influence his life. One is an escaped con who he is forced to aid, and Miss Haversham, a beautiful girl. All of a sudden though a "mysterious" person pays for him to travel and stay in London so he may learn how to be a proper gentlemen.

What does it mean to be indifferent?
Well let me tell you what it isn't first. Take race for an example, for centuries racism has been around and still is. We make up false imprecations and judge someone not for their actions and how they feel, but for what they look like. Often though we are found judging things by their appearance. And it doesn't even have to be a person it could range from a rusted car that looks old to a bran new car that doesn't run.
Maybe one day in the future people will treat each other indifferently. That an African American will just be called American, a Latino American, would just be called an American, etc... you get the point. Hopefully it isn't achieved from everyone being blind, but although it would help.
