Things I Don't Understand.

I got to thinking today while teaching a choir class. Why do people judge people based on what they look like? So what if they're a little different? So what if they dress a certain way? I don't understand why people are so quick to judge others. I know that I've done this in the past, but I've come to realize that things don't really matter as much when you're fixing to leave these people that you've been with since maybe elementary school. People are so cruel sometimes. We did homecoming queen nominations in our homerooms Wednesday, and the guys were nominating "nerdy" or "unpopular" or "unattractive" girls as a joke, and actually trying to get people to vote for them. These guys don't even know these girls, and have probably never had to go through the teasing and ridiculing that these girls go through almost every single day. Something that happened this past week, and last Friday really hit home with me. Last Friday, a group of girls was going to throw DOG TOYS at a girl cheering at the pep rally. DOG TOYS! How do you come up with these things!? Then this week, they barked at her walking down the hall. They don't know this girl. They don't know how sweet, talented, and smart she is. Wow, she wears her hair up during games. So you're going to say she looks like a dog?? Get a life people.

Well, that's my random post for the day. Maybe more later.
