Personally, my life has been alot better when I started taking responsibility for my life, and getting away from the "race card." This isn't to say that racism doesn't exist, but rather to stop go looking for it. So, unless someone specifically says something to the effect of "I hate all ***** [insert any racial slur]" I don't assume or even think about race.

It's almost crazy how my entire life has changed by taking on a new perspective. You don't have to of course, but you might really like it. To know it's up to you to make something of your life, and nothing about your "external" appearance whether you're white, black, blind, or otherwise "different" can stop that.

I find it difficult not to generalize and I don't see the point of taking a break from race. But I guess I'll take a breather. Can you elaborate though please?
