This message is from: "Denise Delgado" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> dear gail, i am not a wasp! i am half mexican (beaner, greaser, bean eater, wet back, etc.) and half italian; ( wop, dago, garlic breath, garlic eaters, guinea, etc). i have heard them all.
my mother (divorced and single before it was cool in the fifties) taught me to not "listen" in my heart to what others say. if i want to do something, just keep trying till i accomplish it. and i did. i went to college and got an r.n. on my own, working full time. i found out i could'nt have kids, so i found some i could adopt. i am tired of these wah, wah, babies who are always crying and blaming others for their misfortunes, becasue it is easier to do so. i adhere to the saying of; don't ever give up, keep trying till you get what you want, no matter what inconveniences there are. so by calling someone a wasp, are'nt you labeling them too? all of this is just words! what matters most is how a person treats another. i treat them all as if they are my equals, and as i would want them to treat me. denise in lovely, sunny and cool, northern california. p.s. sorry for the length of this post. i just had to respond. den
