I told a young man not too long ago, that I was planing on being a writer. He told me, I wouldn't make it. Curious as I may be and dumb at the same time I asked him why?
He said, "Because your black, your not suppose to succeed. You'll never make it." Needless to say the interaction ended in the psychical form where I lost my cool and then he lost his two front teeth. But his words actually hurt me.It actually made me think of how so many people who are black and beautiful don't put them selves in a position of progress. Because there lost in the world of drugs and violence.
Where statistics keep people from reaching for the starts just to get an aerial glimpse of the moon. May be, I'm be the only one who see different. Either way, his words will never truly keep me down.
I don't want to ruin any ones day with this post.I just want people to realize, you can be successful to. Who care what someone else says. Most people are angry , rude and complete dicks, because they hate themselves. They have no purpose, goal or train of thought to see opportunity at every door step.
So no mater what skin color you are. Let me let you know, that YOU CAN DO IT. You can be opposite of the obituary or the New York times headline about the outrageous failure rate in certin parts of the world. YOU can be anybody you want to be. And it's best to dream big and fight the good fight. Find motivation in my situation, because i have.
And i think, i just refused my desire for success tenfold, during this post.Back to work, i guess.
So even if your not the color of Obama. You have the power within you! :banana:
