My avatar, is basically an artistic representation of my soul/actions in so many ways...physically, happens to point to my ethnicity.
I've always been the Watcher over others my entire life. As a kid/teen, I was friend to those that were friends to me, and if we were friends, their
concerns were mine. Also, the mediator...if there was a conflict that could be settled "less than violently", i negotiated for that. If a person
didn't like me, or vice-versa, so long as they respected me, and gave proper distance, the same was given...and now some have matured and recognized
me for who I am, and not where I lived, trends i followed(or mostly not) and
As an adult, I was mostly employed professionaly (sp) to prevent, or protect, and guilt and innocence/right and wrong, was the scale i had to keep
mindful of. I've seen the best and the absolute worst humanity has to offer, up to, and including death...and through it all I've been looked at as a
Comfort. (that's according to most who know me, not my own words)
With strangers, if I've noticed a problem, and were compelled to lend words/assistance, i do...if i can, and it doesn't dampen my day. reminds me of a
time when, at an event here in Georgia, a woman had a heart attack and seemingly I was the only 1 in the crowd of 100's, that knew CPR or cared to
give it. as i knelt to begin, i noticed it was a woman from a city counsel meeting that spit the "N" word and let it be known of her Families Klan
history in my city, but that didnt stop me from doing anything. I took a knee and went to work...needless to say, a week later, she met me after her
release from a hospital and thanked me. And now when she sees me, HUGS! lol, some of the locals(a few of her friends/family) expressed their surprise
at her mental change after that, and the help from "them Nigrahs" as she used to call us. To me it's whatever...if i wasnt gonna help her who was?
that's how i looked at it, then and now.
Fair, laid back, protective, truthful, Loyal, dependable, intuitive, comforting...those are words I've heard, from many mouths, some even surprised me
to hear who they came from, but I guess that's what it is.
