My Daughter and Easter
My Daughter’s name is Amy. She is sweet and friendly. Her friends have went to Disney and then on separate road trip went to St. Louis to see the Art Museum on a weekend. She is currently studying Music Education at a local University.
Amy has been a member of the local Methodist church for years. She attends and participates regularly. I have always taught that treating others as you would be treated applies always, whether driving or hold a door. I am proud of how caring and Polite she is. She has went on several missions and has helped in a local Mission with feeding the homeless.
On Easter last year, Amy posted a Happy Easter. It was commented on several times with comments of Zombie Jesus and horrible drawings that I guess was supposed to be humor, the same type of humor that would have a black man portrayed as an ape or …
I explained to my daughter that some people just have to Piss in Other Peoples Wheaties…they can’t stand to see someone happy, so whatever it is, they piss in their wheaties. Its the same with people that have to tell you your favorite musician sucks, or your favorite sports team sucks…They just want to Piss in Your Wheaties.
Geez Roscoe. Anyone ever tell you you look just like Arlo Guthrie?
once you learn that what another says of you or anyone else . . says more of them that it ever will of those they are speaking to or about. . once can only be left with the thought, there’s a lot of healing in need of happening here. let us ask, how can we snuff or counter it . . can we dance it off the face off this earth, can we let the good times pop through, bust the bubble on troubles, with a song that sing easy as the one you share. .
kept on babbling and so decided to post it in a blog of my own,
There are many who see the differences of others as things to be hated and attacked at all costs. What they do not realize is that the very things that they attack are the very things that they lack as human beings. We reflect each other…sometime the reflections are the darker parts of the human essence.
I am certain that they did not realize that they were demeaning the beliefs of an innocent child. I am not so certain that it would have mattered much. There is much “Bravado” in the non-personal interactions that can be had online. Many of life’s losers take advantage of this. Personal happiness being a piece of life’s experience that they have lost out on.
At any rate, I wish for you and your family a happy and blessed Easter weekend. I am so sorry for the pain and disrespect that your beautiful and innocent daughter experienced. From your personal description and pride of what she is as a person, I am positive that she is a light in your home…and a light in the world.
Happy Easter, my friend!
