6:18am

I promise and Pray that I have a good day.

Like I said I like ALL women, even the ones who don't like he color of my skin. I can't get angry, upset at them because they don't like me for whatever eean they have, that's on them. But it hurts my heart when a woman who has the same color of skin as me says some stupid shit.

A woman told me...'We don't like it when people from New York City come to our town, it makes our town look bad.' My first reaction was to read her the riot act, but I didn't. All I told her was that I was here to enhance HER living experience.

This woman, who is the same color as me...she acts and dresses like the Club Kids of yesteryear in NYC. But here in this town, she is probably the only one who as I have seen this far, she is the only one I've seen dress like this. To me her style is old, her thinking is old. After sleeping on what she said, when I see her I have something to say and tell her.

'As far as I can see, from what little I've seen if you, from what you have said to me...you are doing nothing to enhance your own, let alone anyone else you come in contact with living experience. You probably have never ventures out in this country of ours to see and experience how other people live. You only base your life if what you see and hear online. That is sad and your like every5 else who don't like the color our OUR skin.' I MIGHT tell her this...correction, INFORM her of this.

I served and protected this country at a very young age, 17 years old. I joined the Army in 1977. Doing that, it was my college because I learned so much about myself first and then other people. I KNOW it was the best thing that this far I have done in my whole life. Serving taught me how to deal with all types of situations. I couldnt have learned that in any college. The Armed Forces taught me how to depend on myself FIRST, make decisions in split seconds and then adapt in those same split seconds when the first decision didn't or don't work out. It also taught me to hold back from 'barkig' on stupid silly people who say some stupid or silly shit also. I'm no badass, believe me but...if I have to...well, you know.

Its sad when I see or hear people who limit themselves. These same people always take the safe and easy way out, they let others go first and then they fillow5 after them because the coast is clear for them then. Not me. I address the situation, determine choices and then make a decision. This happens so damn fast it scares me.

Enough.
