Perceptions

People always seem to get them confused. What you see and what you want to see are two different things. When you can get to the point where you can see things for what they truly are. Then you are half way to where you need to be. Some people are just meant for you to see them. It could be a five minute conversation with them. It could be you start dating them. It could be you end up in a relationship with them. They could end up being your husband or wife. When I meet someone new I'm not expecting anything from them. People act fake and shady and when someone is actually nice to them. They think you want them or something from them. A hello from me is simply a hello. I don't have a hidden agenda at all. In work situations it can get really shady with co-workers. They ask you where you got that bag. Or how you can afford that car. A lot of black folk have to deal with these issues on a daily basis. That LV bag can't be real how can you afford that?. The same damn way anyone else does I bought it with my money. Its also the same with Gays as well. How do you feel when you are treated like the spokesperson. For your race or sex or being gay? They act like you know everything there is to know about it. These young kids today are out of control. Damn do I sound old? I'm just saying that just because you listen to Hip Hop music. That doesn't give you the right to be going around using the N word. I had to go off on some ghetto Asian girls not too long ago. They were using the N word like it was going out of style. I had to put them in check. I told them they should not be using that word ever.. I said EVER... They said that they had black friends so they were allowed to use it. I said any sane black person would put you in check. I don't care how many blacks you know or grew up around or went to school with. I asked the girls if they even knew the meaning of the word they were using. They said yes they knew what it meant. One of them started saying it as if she was reading it from the dictionary. I had to stop her and let her know. She was dead wrong and I told them what the real meaning of that word is. They thought because they listen to some Hip Hop they could be down. I don't have a problem if you want to listen to that garbage. Most of it is garbage by the way. I then told them that the word that they were using is a slave word. Its meant to degrade us and make us think about how millions have died on the boat rides over here. How many died here in the US. That America the real history of it was that it was built on the backs of slaves. Four hundred years of slavery and still we are treated badly. We may have a black man as President but Racism is still alive and kicking. When I finished reading those ignorant ghetto Asian girls they were apologizing at first then they were back at it again. I told them I'm not worried about it. I said if Karma doesn't get you first. Some black person will kick your asses. You know that is so wrong for you to use that word. Not only them but all these young kids that are out of control. Yelling and talking all loud and using the N word.. Its very popular for them to do it but.. Be warned Karma is gonna bite you right in the middle of that ass. Ignorant asses will always be ignorant asses and have more ignorant asses.. Isn't there a shot for that?
