7.1

Math is like life.
Universality: for no matter where you go around the world, the concept of math is the same. A number 2 still has the same value whether it's spelled different or looks different, for life has the same value whether the person lives in another country, has a different tone of skin, or an unfamiliar culture.
Simplicity: I often find that the hardest math problems just need a second glance. When I take a step back, breathe, and reanalyze my work I quickly find the solution and continue on. In life, when it seems like no matter what you do you will always be stuck where you are, just slow things down and look at your problem again. You'll find the solution to your toughest dilemma is staring you in the face.
And Impartial: Math does not judge. It doesn't care who you are, because no matter what, the problem and solution will remain the same. And each person has to figure out how to get to the end on their own. Life will not give you an easier route if you are a better person. None of us are created better than another, so we are all given obstacles to overcome, and we are all expecting to find our own solutions to our problems.
