New Normal?

6/26/20 -- So, here we are a "so called" new normal.  What exactly does that mean?  I am pretty sure that it means something different for everyone and for every state.  For instance, where I live (the state of Wisconsin) we don't have to wear masks any more, however there are people that still do and that is fine with me.  I don't wear a mask but I am quite conscious of my surroundings and do my best to not breathe toward anyone, especially if we happened to be in close proximity to each other, like when passing each other in a grocery store isle.  I do wash my hands every time I get home for any place, where I didn't do that on a regular basis.
   I still don't have a job, which is quite annoying because I want to work but, I just can't seem to find a job.  Not even to just take temperatures at a warehouse or other place.  If a job doesn't come along then I would like to get married, that sounds so wrong.  I mean that I have wanted to get married and that still hasn't happened.  
  Then there is the problem of "racism".  First of all; I completely despise that word.  To me, there is no such thing as racism because we are all of the human race!  Yes, there are people in this world that have different skin colors - black, brown, tan, white, even olive skinned.  So what, so what if someone has a different skin color, that doesn't mean they get treated any differently.  I got new for everyone the white skinned people ARE NOT any better than any other skin color.  I don't understand hatred toward black Americans, I just don't.  To me, there is absolutely zero reason to hate a different skin color.
   I believe that we need to STOP TEACHING our children to HATE another person or group of people just because of their skin color.
HATRED is just flat out bad and we need to stop it.  God created us all, He didn't create one skin color to be supreme over another, that is just ridiculous.  He created us all equal, period end of story.
  Also, all thru our history there have been people who started slavery, who ended slavery and yet those same people are far from perfect.  I do know from my history lessons that there were plenty of black Americans that contributed a lot to move our country along in it's growth.

Job

6/16/20 -- I am still without a job.  I don't get what the hold up is.  I went for an interview, a couple of weeks ago and still haven't heard one way or the other.  I am thinking that I should have heard from them by now.  This is why I despise job hunting like this, online.  There is no contact other than email.  The job I interviewed for is one that I really want to do, it would give me a leg up in the career path that I want to go into, since I have to work outside my home.
  I gotta admit that what I really want to do is be and assistant for my pastor and his wife, they have plenty of children to which I would love to help them with.  If there was a way that $5.000 a month put into my checking account then I could move closer to them and help them out on a daily basis.  I so totally love that family and want so much to help them out, but as long as I gotta have an income that just isn't possible.

Here we Go Again

6/2/20 - - I am going to now speak to the current events as I see them.  An officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, over stepped his bounds and executed beyond extreme force on a black AMERICAN.  Yes, I said black AMERICAN.  Let me explain.
  The way that I see it African/Americans should no longer be referred to as African/American.  Why, you ask, well I am about to tell you.  It's very simple, the black Americans that are currently living (this generation) and those that have passed on, have been here beyond long enough to be considered and regarded as AMERICANS!!!!!  The reason being is that none of the other nationalities that live in this country and HAVE LIVED IN THE COUNTRY AS LONG AS THE black AMERICANS are not called or considered or treated as anything other than AMERICANS!!!!!  
  Now, I now there was a time, in this country, when the west was being "won" that the chinese were also subjected to slavery and other abuses, however, they no longer deal with that, that any of us have been told.  To my knowledge Chinese people that have come and lived in the country legally are not discriminated against and their skin color is different as is their culture.  There are AMERICANS here from all over the world, most came on their own accord even the current direct from African/Americans.
   I fully understand that there is a very dark past with regards to how the THEN BLACK AFRICANS were brought over here and how they were treated.  However, both generations of peoples that when thru that (the slave owners and the slaves) have long, long since pasted which then means that the human race needs to learn how to treat all people equally, most definitely the black AMERICANS, as they are the ones who are more publicly getting mistreated, for absolutely zero reason other than their skin color.  To me that is just ignorance and stupidity.  
  God created us all as the human race, after that there are zero other races!!!!  God created the skin colors of the rainbow, so to speak, and the languages and cultures.  We as a nation need to get a freakin grip on ourselves and stop thinking that white is better than any other color, period end of story!!!!!
    As I have said in the past on other media platforms;  if you all want other races then go watch STAR WARS AND/OR STAR TREK!!  Those two movie franchises truly show you different races.  Otherwise, let's just stop all this nonsense and treat EVERYONE equally.  
      The officers that stood by and did nothing are just as guilty as the one who perpetrated the actual crime because they did nothing to stop the officer with his knee on the neck of that black american.
  The rioting that is going on with the NEEDLESS destruction of property and looting which really is STEELING in nonsense and stupid!!!!
