Belief seems to be all we have. I want you to believe in yourself more than anything else in this world. There are so many belie of criminal or ex cons, we are belittled and throw to the wolves before we even take a step out into society. Poisonous black berries, that's how I feel. They wouldn't even touch me . They treat me like I'm poisonous black berries. I refuse to settle for a bell-boy position, the position I am putting myself in is to be the guest, the guest that gives his bags to the bell-boy.
The woman and ex- con are dogged. How does a woman become a belle? The media! How does a person who made a mistake become a ex-con? The media! The media continually flashes the so called belle and those who don't look like her try to become her. This causes war! The woman who knows this is constantly fighting for respect with the rest of society. All she wants is to be respected as a individual. All the ex-con wants is to be respected as a individual. Instead of calling them bitches and instead of calling them ex-cons just call them individuals.
Well said! I especially liked your title. Creative!
ReplyDeleteI agree. You need to respect to be respected. Everyone is different and not everyone is the same as you. Instead of looking at other people negatively, you should view them as unique individuals.
