I dont know if you watched tyra today but it was very interesting there was a black lady on the show that said that she "hated black people" that "she wasnt black". this reminded me completely of mandi. A girl with such despise of her skin color that every desision she makes in life orbits around hate. I know her "reason" why doesnt like black (im not gonna put her buisness out there). But how can you wish your skin was different? Why do you think if you act a certain way you'd be accepted in in a world you werent born in? The saddest part of it all is that she isnt going to get better I truly believe that she cant see her self as beaiutiful. Her mindset is that if she surrounds her self by white people that either she will be seen as white, feel white, or just forget that shes black. But what do you do when you encounter a person like that? Do you try and help them realize that they are beautiful just the way they are? Maybe trying to there for them will never be enough? But does a person who's life that has so much...hate (i guess is the word) be seen as a good person? I dont like to think of people as inherintly bad. I think that they encounter a situation, choose to hate and therfore become bad people for the rest of their life. But its their choice right? You will never see me around people like that. Because on some level you have to realize you have to move on. quit letting one bad thing run your entire life. But hey thats just me.
The questions are mostly rhetorical, answer them if you feel like to.
