Choices

A Game of Life

Welcome to life. Life’s based on choices. You decide how you live based on the decisions you make. Let’s begin.

Do you wanna be a boy or girl? Simple choice, but I should probably warn you that this world we live in doesn’t really treat women the same as men you’ll be treated different, seen different, even paid differently. Okay now, what race do you wanna be a part of? Oh, yea before you choose I should probably advise you stay away from anything with too much melanin or that’s not really white to be honest so that kinda covers your black, Latino, Indian, natives, Arabs, etc. Oh, why you’re wondering? It’s just that the world views them differently and they’re not always treated the best. Once again it’s a little harder for women. Alright, you got your choice? On to the next let’s pick somewhere to live this is a tough one because nowhere is really perfect. You can try America, but it’s not as great as you hear. The almighty land of the free and home of the brave. Sounds good until you live here. This is where that race choice comes in. If you’re not white, honestly it’s gonna be a tough one living in America. You could just live in your country of origin where you’d be around your own people, but the living conditions may suck. Poverty, communism, war, famine, disease—but hey, it’s your choice. Have you decided? Okay.

Let’s talk religion, there’s no escape for this one. No matter what you pick you'll be hated—hell even if you choose no religion, people will still find a reason for hate.

Alright, get ready for a wild card.

Remember how at the beginning you chose to be a boy or a girl? Well here is your chance to change that. You have a large variety from simple male and female to trans or whatever you care to identify yourself as. Now heed my warning though; now that you can be what you want, only the brave should choose anything besides male because, once again, humans love to hate. Alright, I’ve asked you the questions, you’ve made your choices, and you should have an idea of the life you’d live. The idea is no matter what you choose, we live in a world where you’ll be hated; the important thing is that none of the hate matters as long as there’s one person that loves you.
