black&white.

Tonight I learned something new.

Tonight someone very dear to me didn't accept something I love & adore.
There was a conversation flowing throughout my house tonight about adopting adorable black babies, & there was a person that entered our house that turned their back on the idea of someday having our house over-flowing with black babies or even a handsome black husband, if he were to enter mine or one of my sisters lives. They were not accepting.

I don't understand that. God loves us ALL the same, why can't this person? They are in no place to judge, but for some reason they had such a strong opinion on this.

One day, I will adopt a beautiful dark skinned baby & cover that child in love.
So will the rest of my family.

My sister was saying tonight how she wants to adopt at least two black babies. I adore that.
But, why is it so looked down on by certain people? Why? It's just a skin color, that's it.

You are in no place to judge, because if you were black, you'd hope that people would take the time to love you, right? I would love you just the same. I will love my someday babies just the same as I will my adopted children. There will be NO picking favorites. If you don't accept my 'views' on this, & won't love ALL of my family, well tough, you can leave.

I was raised up to love one another, just as Jesus does. <--why can't we remember that?

Black people are exquisite, in my opinion. Just stunning. & there are so many black children just waiting to have arms to love them & hold them. Wondering where their next meal will come from, or wondering if there will ever be someone that will love them. They want to be rocked to sleep & held when they're crying. Those beautiful black children desire all the same things we do, but so many of them lack ever being given the chance to be loved or accomplish their dreams. Why? Because there are too many people in this world looking down on them as if they are dirt. As if they are the scum of the earth & don't even deserve a second glance.
Who are we to think we're better then them?

This person that entered our home tonight told us that they would disown us if we ever had a black child or husband enter our home. They weren't kidding either. I don't agree with that, at all. Your views, are very low.

Why is it that blacks are so frowned upon, but when someone has a baby out of wedlock, it's fine by the majority of the world today? Or when someone is sleeping around or in a homosexual relationship?

We're ALL the same. Every single one of us is beautiful & loved by the one that created us & formed us. By the one that decided what color our skin would be, & who our parents would be. If we'd have two black parents or one black & one white, or two whites. God decided that & this is our chance to love everyone we come in contact with. Don't frown upon them just because they have a different skin color then you, that's not your place. Just love them the same & one day you will be rewarded, greatly.

I guess this just hit a soft spot in me tonight & I needed to write. I wanted the world to know just how I felt on this subject.
Many people most likely don't agree with me & that's fine. You don't have to, I'm not asking for acceptance, I'm just giving you a chance to hear my side.

Someday my house will be filled with beautiful black & white feet running across my floors. Of children that know what it feels like to be loved & adored & accepted. Who knows, maybe a handsome black boy will enter my life & we'll make our own exquisite dark skinned children. Only God knows, but I do know that I will love you just the same. No matter what you look like.

grace.
