Human
So my mom & I was talking about driving and stuff. Then she jumped to the subject of how her brother, my uncle, is deaf and he didn’t like to listen to her. I asked her how old was he? She said “same as you when I started teaching you how to drive”. She kept saying over and over how because of his disability, he should’ve listened to stuff that my mom told him, that his parents (my grandparents) told him; but he didn’t. I told my mom, well he’s just human. He’s old now, but you can tell him over and over and act like his mom, but he’s just human. We all make mistakes. We all are different.
But my point is: in spite of our imperfections; whether we’re disabled, mentally unstable, or any disorder for that matter; we are all human. I know it’s reality, and I have to face the truth, but it sucks that not everybody can see what I see.
When I look at people that have down-syndrome, are deaf, or blind, I look at them as regular people. As people that have feelings too. They may not speak their mind, but they can write it down, or have someone tell it to them. They can learn sign language, anything. Everyone has a capability to do anything if they set their minds to it.
The world’s cruel, we have racism, sexism, people judging on other people on their orientation, it’s just cruel. Again, I know it’s reality, and I have to face it, but it sucks how people are cruel. It’s just ridiculous.
I don’t know about everyone else, but I love everybody until they have proven me otherwise. & I’m telling you this because it hurts me. It probably hurts other people too, but it hurts me so much.
Fian, Nichole.
