There's No Such race as an White or Black person. ALL Caucasion are from Europe, Russia, Asia, Spain, etc. You should get my point. The Black and White race was derived to be the majority of the Blacks or should I say African Americans. All European, Russian, Asian Americans were classified as White to be the majority.

Now let's flip the scriptn. For ALL of the so called Whites within America, would you trade places w/Blacks on any level? Would you be willing to be treated like Blacks/African Americans are treated.

I'll Wait...

Any level? No.
Above my level? Naturally. 

I would apply this to anybody though, regardless of color or creed. There are simply some people in this world, in this country, abroad, etc. They simply have it well off or better off than most. However, not to sound too childish about it all. I also know that gold doesn't always glitter and the grass is not always greener. It's not always about the money. 

There's a sadness, a trade off when it comes to humanity in general. Eventually, all good things become dull and devour you. Eventually, some bad things can be overcame and without some obstacles you wouldn't know what it's like to feel good or happy. Cliches for sure. But, they're true. 

Joy wouldn't feel so good if it wasn't for pain. I'll leave you with a poem I enjoy. Because it's almost 1600 hours and I am putting a cap on a 65 hour work week with just Sunday off tomorrow before getting back into work on Monday. Cheers man because in the end, time always wins:

I've been around the world

I've seen a million things
I've fought in countless wars
And dined with many kings.

I've seen the northern lights
I've counted all the stars
Been in 'n' out of Saturn's rings
And started life on Mars.

I'm fluent in every language
I've tasted each cuisine
I've stayed in every palace
And lived what people dream.

I was there when it began
And I know when it will end
My only enemy is man.
Yet you are still my dearest friend.

I invented evolution
I gave you your first breath
I was there at your conception
And I'll be there at the time of death.

"Marcus Pete Robert Welfare"
