Is race factor still prevailing in United States of America?

I have flower of black petals in my garden, and as she gets the ray of sun she never lose opportunity to shine to her brightest. It seems as if her glitter was long waiting for her mates. She was not alone in my garden. As she shares her glitter with all of her mates of different colors, some of red, pink, blue, orange and white, my garden became the luckiest one to blossom into bliss.

I have my room turned into nature’s habitat. I often have her dance. I remember her first dance, when I opened my window in ignorance, and my ignorance turning into bliss. As the breeze gets her from the corner of window; embracing the breeze she keeps moving in utter smoothness and spreading her fragrance all around. The silence inside breaks into cheers when butterfly who was hanging lazy and lax started flapping its wings and as it starts moving into the rhythm, slowly and slowly my room turns into nature’s habitat.

I have seen her with no colors; but in her excellence she always stood tranquilly and her sanguine about her prospect never bowed me down. Even if she loses her single petal, it drops my heart, but as I bow it back into her root in sanguine, I am always pleased with more of her petals.

I have seen her everlasting glitter. She never stops her glitter to end – as she started glitter with the rise of sun, her glitter continued to the setting of sun and as in the midst of the darkness moon comes out to its brightest bringing beauty to the darkness, she seems to be waiting prepared for welcoming this moment and I could see how this moment is thrilling her excitement. Never in past had I loved darkness of night more than now, and I stood up to salute her highness and I say I have a master and she is my master and her highness has done this miracle to me, and like never before I started feeling the beauty in darkness.

When I see clouds moving around the borrowing the brightness of moon, I give her pleasing smile to indicate that she may have to wait for the moon’s brightness as all are sharing the single moon. As moon light strikes into cloud, to my surprise, the darkness of cloud converted into the rolling snow of sky. It was truly miracle when I saw the huge cloud converted in a flip of a coin into snowball, it seems certainly as the “king of snow”. As I made her notice this astounding ambiance, she rejoiced in calmness and waited for the pass by of clouds. By the time she keeps steering towards the snowy sky, I lit the candle so as to keep her glittering as she loves to glitter, and as she glitter her glitter glitters all of her mates rejoicing all of us around.

She had the flower in the color of black but I had noticed her flower shining in all seasons in the bright of day with sun and in the darkness of night with moon.

As I learned from her highness, Color does not bear the burden of any nature and character. Color remains constant; it never changes its color, and no one color prevails over other. However two or more color can mutually agree to transform into a different color, but no one color solo perform this activity and so all color share equal contribution when they what to be transferred into the color of rainbow.

Our thoughts and feeling are heavily associated with colors. Color cannot be defined with perfection, and though many poets have tried to explain it with their deep imagination, it always remained less defined giving more scope to define. Color offers its countless meanings. Different objects can be associated to colors to exemplify the objects natures and characters thus deriving to the meaning associated with the objects of particular colors like blue the color of sky, black color of earth, red color of sun, white color or moon.

Our thought on color needs profound changes. Taking United States as an example I am relieved to witness here that we all are living in present and people no more bear the scar of the unpleasant discrimination of color of skin of past that caused violent bloodbath. Peeping to the History of United States it is undoubtedly apparent that people were divided with the color of skin “black and white”. Whites were among the ruling class while blacks were followers and victims of notorious slavery system. But History also says change happened and it was embraced by the majority. Whites in majority passed several bills, created the law protecting the fundamental right of freedom for all to live in a free world in peace promoting prosperity. With the effort of our forefathers country like United States of America has detached with the taboo of unjust discrimination and assured that all people irrespective of cast, culture, color, and religion, all people are born equal and have freedom to live life in a way that build our society united towards better prosperity.

Changes have been visible in the society of United States of America and the biggest proof of this change in the history of United States is that we have black man Mr. Obama as the President of United States; and he deserves it most because he is hard working guy and his dream is guided by the dream of the American people.

Certainly, He would not have won if whites would not have supported him. But as we all know whites in majority have overwhelmingly supported him and Hilary Clinton who was his opponent also complemented him with her support by publicly respecting his talent and appreciating his dream as American dream.

Whites supported his ideas because this generation has learned from their forefathers that race factor has no relevance for the country progress and urged to support only good ideas and there are no such black ideas or white ideas. Children of United States of America are taught to understand and acknowledge people by conscience and not to be biased by the color of skin.

Those who had doubt and resist change let’s be clear that change has been embraced and race factor has disappeared in reality as supreme office so called President office is served for the first time by the black man.

This is America. Had people of United States of America been racist this USA known for United States of America would have been DSA as divided states of America. This country has a religion of respecting good people and in law there is no difference between white people and black people.

Digging into the statistics of Presidency election it is apparent that white people including majority of young people overwhelmingly voted Mr. Obama. Young are the future of America and there is glimpse of assurance that our society is following the path to prosperity and unity. As per the CNN exit poll 66% of the youngster of age 18-29 voted Mr. Obama. Overall 43% of the whites’ population had voted for the Obama. This shows decent support by the whites. Those whites who do not vote him are not because of race factor but it is because they support more ideas of his opponent Mr. John Mc Cain. Certainly, these facts show that Whites won for Mr. Obama because they have tremendous hope in Obama as he has provided his strong strategy on how he can bring the change 21^st century America need.

Looking at the statistics and history I am assured of United States of America that Americans are not bothered of race, culture, color and religion but what concern more to the people of United States is the idea that works for bringing prosperity.

Like the flowers of black petals along with her other colored mates blossomed my garden and tranquil my space, color bring cheer, joy and tranquility into all of our lives. Thus we all should try to embrace the idea of beauty offered by the color like my black petal who offered endless cheers and joy in my daily living.
