The "Race" Is On

In the wake of the Hurricane Katrina disaster, with all of the media coverage, why must America again play the "Race" card? I am so sick of hearing about race, any time things don't go the way we want them too, it was because one race was oppressing another race. Because one color of people can't treat the other color of people the way they should be treated.

God created all people, not just the white ones. We are all brothers and sisters. (Or at least 2nd cousins.) Act like it! If we can not Love one another, help one another, tolerate one another what is the point of even being here? If life is a test, we are failing miserably.

Maybe it's because I am color-blind (can't tell red from orange from brown) or maybe it's because I was raised by hippies, but I can't be the only one on the planet who thinks this is retarded. Suck it up! It doesn't always have to be someone else's fault. It doesn't always have to be "us against them". Sometimes, really bad shit just happens, and we are left to deal with the aftermath. Together. There is only one race, (the Human one) and like it or not, we are all in it.

Life is a test... Love is the answer.

Ok. I just gave you the answer. Let's see if we can "pass" this thing and move on.
