Only Human

This is a pop quiz.
Please answer these quick questions
Very carefully.

Take a look at me.
What do you see besides the
Color of my skin?

I'm talking to you!
Now tell me in your own words
How you'd define me.

Do you see me as
A hard-working, positive
Individual?

Or do you really
Think that I am just a joke,
Nothing but garbage?

You have no answer.
But let me tell you something:
Hatred WILL NOT WIN!!

Now keep this in mind:
The Bible says to judge not,
Unless you be judged.

We aren't perfect;
We make terrible mistakes,
And we learn from them.

It's time to spread love.
Do not look the other way:
We're only human.
