No Half-Stepping Society

Our society, community for the longest has been wrapped up in the trends of having escalades, being the man on the block, being a product of society. and many more. Of course its not everyone but this sums up our culture. We are known to let our ignorance determine our life according to the world. When that's not the truth. There are many African Americans both male and female that are changing their community, and the world. So my question is when are we going to step-up in our society? When are we going to up-grade ourselves to become better than what we were in the past? It's time to be "21" with our lives and demonstrate for the future generation that its more to owning a navigator with "deuces" on the tires. It's time for us to change the trend. We need to re-invent ourselves. I am fully aware of those that have gone before us and done great things. I commend and applaud them for their success. Now that they have done their job,its our time. Lets educate one another and help each other grow because we can't live in a society that doesn't want to mature and become a better union. We don't need to do it for the world or the others that degrade us. We need to do it for ourselves. It will show that we are about work and business. We are intelligent. We know how to raise are sons and daughters. In addition, we know how to be a family unit and work through all our issues. Where are all my business men and women, doctors, lawyers,teachers, mechanics, and entertainers? Its our responsibility to make a big dent. We need to move from minor to major. For years we have been a part of the minority and acquiring respect will result from doing great things. There is an excessive amount of things against us and that inhibit us from going far. So I say its our time to make it our priority to do work and gain success through the many achievements that we will earn in the future. It's time to relinquish the trends of having all the cars, money, and girls. How about the trend of being a man or a woman reaching new heights that were said were unobtainable by the world or evening our own people? It's our future people and I'm on my journey to becoming great and not letting anyone or anything stop me. My people lets shock the world and give our best. When they are not supporting us we have to support each other. We have to step it up in our society, really. Lets take that full step to be amazing.
