A father finds his son praying at night. 'God bless Mommy, Daddy, and Grandma. Ta ta Grandpa.' The father finds this odd, but doesn't think too much of it. The next morning the grandfather dies. The father remembers the night before, but doesn't say anything. That night, the son prays, 'God bless Mommy and Daddy. Ta ta, Grandma.' The father hopes that nothing happens to the grandmother. Sure enough, the next morning the grandmother dies. At this point the father gets really scared. That night, the son prays "God bless Mommy. Ta ta, Daddy". The father stays up all night long, frightened. Early in the morning he goes to the doctor to make sure everything is fine. When he comes home, his wife is waiting frantically in the driveway and yells "Honey, come quick! The milkman just dropped dead on the porch!"

"Cowards die many times before their deaths: the valiant never taste death but once. Of all the wonders that I have yet heard, It seems to me most strange that men should fear, seeing that Death,a necessary end, will come when it will come."

Why do people make fun of white people? I mean, it's just a color....Also, people will make fun of me because I'm Jewish and it hurts because Jews fought for their freedom just like black people, so why is skin color such a big deal? (link)

People fear what they don't understand and hate what they can't conquer. I'm black, and I often think about things like that, as well. I have an international group of friends. I have friends from Asia, Africa, America, etc...Sometimes, when people feel uncomfortable and unsure about themselves, the usually make fun of others to take the slack off, and make themselves feel better. Also, steryotypes is another issue. When I go into white surburbia, most people look at me like I'm a thug's girlfriend or something, but I'm not, I would be more like a punk's girlfriend, but anyways, people aren't always opened minded and they believe everything they've heard and learned without questioning it, so they don't think for themselves. I think its stupid for peoplr to be like that, that would be like me hating white people because of slavery, thats stupid, the family I live with is white, and they aren't "slave masters" ya' know. In all my rambling, I hope you got something out of this, and if you didn't thats ok, too. But remember this; you can't teach anyone anything, you can only make them think.
MAd Love,
Victoria
