I've written 3 entries today. I'm on a roll today!
Today I'd like to talk about race. In particular, black people. Y'know, I'm a little disappointed with the whole idea that black people have in their mind. I mean, some black people. Being black, they may think I don't have black pride. That's probably true. I'm more into the inner being than the skin color.
It's disappointing that some black people blame their skin color on the fact that they cannot succeed. I'm not saying that other people won't judge on skin color, no no, but it's the fact that they believe they can't do anything because they are black. Don't ever let that hold you back. Regardless of what race you are. This is what I want to stress.
People who get angry at someone of their race dating someone of a different race disappoints me as well. Personally I think it's a way to mingle different cultural backgrounds and bring people closer. Then there wouldn't be just one race of black people or Asian, Mexican etc. But people with different pieces within themselves. Then no one could judge another because everyone would be mixed with lots of things.
But then I guess they would judge on outer appearance *rolls eyes*
I've also come across some very disturbing information from the older generation of black people. And yes I'm telling it all. I think different race of people should know. In particular, white people. There is this thing that white people are trying to bring back slavery.
I told the woman that I was speaking to that I doubt that it would be successful. One because there are mixed relationships were whites are dating or even have married blacks, so those people would stand up. Second because in the past our they didn't know what they were getting themselves into. And Third, I doubt black people would just go into it without a fight.
That made me sad that people believe this. I'm not saying some whites don't like black people, because I know that's stupid. Some people do dislike people because of their skin color, which is just ridiculous to me. However, when I see that I think "well, some white people don't like white. And some blacks don't like black people." but I don't think it's the skin color they dislike, but the qualities that have been contributed to a certain group of people. For the most part I will say that yes, a majority of blacks here where I live are very loud. But not all of them are like that.
It's like:
Majority > Minority.
The majority is loud, but there are minorities who aren't loud. And this whole level system is very crappy and needs to be torn down. Of course I'm not saying anything new. Some black people will say "I hate loud black people."But I think it's the quality.
That kind of thing can't be helped. There are loud people regardless of skin color. But for the most part, some people aren't taught to be respectful of other people. Or if they were, they just don't listen. Why hold that against every black person?"
It's like if I had an oreo and only ate the cream. Then what's the point of the oreo? I wouldn't be enjoying he whole cookie. It wouldn't be a cookie at all. Why not just buy cream? Why buy oreos in the first place??
I dunno, some things in this world just always fly at me and I'd sit and think about the fact that it almost makes as much sense as a people walking upside down on ceilings wearing animal outfits while singing "Yalonjzbuoubfkj". And that pretty much makes no sense, which is how I feel when I think about that kind of situation. hahaha
I don't know if I'm the most open minded person in the world, but I can certainly say that some things just don't balance out quite well. It's kind of like double-standards. They work in some situations, but not others.
One last thing before I'm done. I really do like other cultures. There are things, many things, we could learn from each other. For example, China has one of the best ways for curing the body of ailments using natural ingredients from the earth.
Oh! And also, I heard from one Native American that Native Americans are the lowest minorities in the U.S. O__o how is that even possible? She said they are lower than Mexicans.
This is why I'm not for levels. I talk to everyone. Everyone isn't me. That's cool. But it would be great if I had a tape player to play back some of the things that people have said to be over the course of my 22 years. Then I'd play it back and ask them "how does that sound to you?" and I'm sure they'll say "it sounds fine to me." Then I'd say "come back for another lifetime as the thing you dislike, then come back to me and tell me how that information sounded." hahaha then they'd say "I don't believe in reincarnation." and I'd say "say that after your next life", pat their shoulder and walk away.
lol I can't believe I just had a lot of fun typing that xD Anyways, that's all for now.
My advice look beyond what your eyes are seeing. Things aren't just the way they are for no reason. It started somewhere. For example, a ripple doesn't just appear, something caused it.
