Did your grandmother teach you anything?

GlitterBug · 22-25, F
Be wary around fire. How to make meatloaf. don't sweat small stuff. Buy the thing and save the broken things. (Maybe that's bad advice though, she kind of had a hoarding thing going on) Nothing wrong with hand me downs or thrift store items.
She taught me how to hate. (She failed in that)
She taught me to be a bigot.(She failed in that)
She taught me how to make one feel unloved-and unwanted( She failed in that too)
She taught me that a "woman's place" was in the kitchen(She failed at that)
She taught there was "man's work" and "women's work" (She-yeah-what I said above)

I taught her, in 1965, that no matter the skin, White, Red, Black , Yellow,whaTev... we are ALL important. ALL loved! All have worth! And ALL NEED TO BE TREATED EQUALLY UNDER THE LAW! (I failed, she was far too set in her ways!)

I taught her, in 1968 at the start of the Women's liberation movement that woman are as equal as men and can do whatever the fuck he does. And he can do what she does! (Neither fail or success. She did have a MALE nurse she somewhat liked but would NEVER admit to!)

I taught her that a handicap does NOT define the limitation of people of the human spirit! (And she died LEARNING that lesson by one 59 years YOUNGER than her!!!)

SHE TAUGHT ME WHAT NOT TO BE BY BEING IT HERSELF!!!!!!!!!
