Life holds many treasures, only some are brave enough to find. The truly wise cherish, and know what they hold is divine.

Maybe
People can be so damn annoying. Why would you be a young man with potential promises of grandeur and dress like a thug complete with sideways baseball cap? Don't they realize society will instantly judge them to fall into the mold of womanizer, gun-totter, foul-mouthed scum on welfare? Maybe they don't realize it. Maybe wearing over-sized clothes and walking with a forced limp is a form of expression to them. Maybe I am the one in the wrong by throwing accusations in their direction. Or maybe not. I will let you decide. Here I am sitting at a fast food restaurant waiting on my car's oil to be changed. I am minding my own business eating my unsatisfactory meal and twice I overhear the apparent leader of the pack of four head in my direction to "scam on a girl." He attempted twice but his attention span was so short it took minimal effort for his friends to distract him. So now do I have the right to judge this young man in particular? In observing him for a total of ten minutes I can come to some reasonable conclusions but definitely nothing life condemning. I am no oracle. But come to think of it, I started writing this before the young man even came in my direction, before I had any real, personal issue with his behavior. So it is reasonable to assume that I am in asshole in the situation. I only feel threatened because I don't understand.
