I am not in any way saying that she looked like a homeless because she was black, I am just trying to be honest and explain what I was thinking at the time.<BR/><BR/>I know that some people might take it the wrong way but my intention is not offend anybody. I am simply telling my story and explaining "my perception" <BR/><BR/>This was a valuable lesson for me as well.<BR/><BR/>thanks for your comment.Shaniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07638956268383590096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7398308465666413331.post-1639132550249820982009-03-31T10:42:00.000-04:002009-03-31T10:42:00.000-04:00Good morning Shania,It's interesting how outward p...Good morning Shania,<BR/><BR/>It's interesting how outward perceptions shape both our thinking and judgement of people before ever knowing a thing about them.<BR/><BR/>The woman had a perception of Mexicans being "<B>short and dark</B>" and you had a perception of her being "<B>a poor old homeless Black woman</B>".<BR/><BR/>Both perceptions appear inaccurate. It's good your perception didn't prevent you from eating.<BR/><BR/>I've learned something valuable today. Thanks.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://underovr.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">U</A>underOvr (aka The U)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09241293702725984736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7398308465666413331.post-67318391657096177042009-03-31T10:05:00.000-04:002009-03-31T10:05:00.000-04:00Big ((hugs)) to you!Big ((hugs)) to you!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15007358001683431887noreply@blogger.com
