Fed Up!

I am so fed up with the black community. The young men sit around and talk about how the white man is doing this to them and the government is doing that. No you're doing it to yourselves. If you want something bad enough no one can keep you from getting it. So instead of smoking that blunt why don't you pick up a book and learn something. Instead of selling that dope go flip burgers at McDonalds while going to school.Young ladies instead of laying up and having children on top of children, go to school, get a career, not just a job that's just going to hold you over. Our race is in a spiral downfall. If you want to blame someone pick up a mirror and stare real hard at the person looking back at you because only that person is the reason for your failure. You talk about white people want to keep you down,they don't have to because they know you're going to do it yourself. God gave us the gift of free will and some of you just use it as if it's toilet paper. Do something with your life. Make a difference! Our ancestors fought too hard for our freedom and the right to educate ourselves for it to be thrown away so easily. We are descendants of kings and queens.Act like it!

Just needed to vent. I'm just fed up. Sometimes it makes me sick to watch how the people of my race are throwing away their lives. Blaming everyone but themselves for the way their lives are turning out or have turned out. The made those decisions. Black on black crime is a disgrace and a waste of life. Instead working hard some choose to take the easy way out. Doing that you will get no where in life.

My parents have always worked hard for what they have. They raised me to do the same. They preached to me as a child to get an education, work hard for the things that you want, and never let anyone tell you that you can't do something. If you want it bad enough you'll get it. I admit to falling off the wagon a few times but I climbed back on it. I'm in school, I take care of my son, and I stay away from the drama that I know will pull me away from my goal.
