my mom speaks to me about.
bias and prejudice.
and why it can exist in places most unlikely.
i feel blessed.
because for many years i've been kept in the dark.
staying happy at the sight of my parents' smiles.
it's been a few years now.
and i have long known the true side of who i thought.
were at least kind in that sense.
but life doesn't change.
i will still smile when my parents do.
because they have worked hard for me.
telling a lie is an easy thing to do.
keeping a lie is not so easy.
and so i don't find it to be bad in any way.
in fact.
i appreciate it.
so perhaps.
i might just start working hard.
to at least let them know that.
their son can do whatever he says he wants to do.
and let those fools know.
you picked the right person to lavish on.
now regret.
and regret it hard.
because revenge is not what i seek for.
it is redemption.
