Universal Language

Does anyone else find it interesting that with the hundreds of spoken langauges and thousands of different cultures that there is one language that stays the same? There are just somethings that we all do reguardless of race, gender, or nationality. I guess I just find it neat that we as human beings have this connection despite our differences. When we are happy we laugh, though the humorous subject might be different; a monkey in the jungle or sitcom on tv, it doesn't matter. If something is sad, we cry, a sad story or your friend moving away. I don't really know what the point of this post is other than to say that though you may think you are quite distintive from someone across the globe or across the street, if you break it down, you're not so different as you might suppose.
