I'm sorry but in the 90's and 00's you know for a fact that shit wouldn't be there in our libraries.
I'm sorry but I'm not going to pretend like the school officials I had growing up were paragons of virtue and ethics who should regulate our culture forever.
Let me write an anecdote.
A baby gets sick. He laid in his bed going cough, cough, cough! His mother buys a dark red syrup to ease the pain and make his hard throat soft. The baby spits out the cough syrup. "I'll force feed the medicine by pinch his cheeks in!"
Down it went. It tasted disgusting.
The child got older and was sick again. He laid in his bed going cough, cough, cough! His mother buys a dark red syrup to ease the pain but this time had another thought! "I'll promise his ice cream if he takes his medicine!"
Down it went. It smelled disgusting but at least there was dessert afterwards.
The child became a teenager and was sick again. He laid in his bed going cough, cough, cough! His father buys a dark red syrup to ease the pain but this time the teenager took it willingly. "I'll disappoint dad if I don't take it!"
Down it went. It looked disgusting but he made his father happy.
The teenager became a man and was sick again. He laid in his bed going cough, cough, cough! He buys a dark red syrup to ease the pain but this time the man couldn't wait to take it. "The more I'm sick the less work I can get done!"
Down it went. It actually tasted pretty good!
Throughout our lives we are raised in a specific manner and taught certain values by our parents, our communities, our nations. Many of these things we reject because we find them outdated or just flat out wrong. There comes a time in every person's life when we can finally admit that some things, mom and dad were right about all along and we come to embrace tradition, our parents, and our culture.
Being grown means being able to say you were wrong in how you rejected what you were taught and that your parents, your family, your culture were right along.
Thank God for tradition. In this world there's only Right and Wrong and some of us take our medicine later than others.
