Part 2 of living in the south

Ok with any good things there are bad things

1. There is still some prejudices hate to say it but there are you cant leave some things in the past and that is one of them I still hear at the country gas station down the road the N word I cant stand that word but sadly its used here to this day


NOW LET ME SAY ITS NOT ALWAYS LIKE THIS BUT IAM JUST SPEAKING FROM EXPIERENCE AND MY OWN EYES AND Ears

2. Everything move slowier in the south the people, the jobs, the thoughts about certain things
Example: Thoughts about the ecomony, or the president, or Ipods even you dont see many older individuals with Ipods or computers they just dont know how to deal with them

3. Everyone in the south is a (should i dare say it) Republican GASP!
And you can not I repeat CAN NOT change there views on a black man trying to get into the white house shutter to think....
Laslty, in closing my favorite Reinactors God love them
They think they are going to change a 150 years old war sorry hate to tell them but nope General Lee will always surrendor and you cant change that no matter how many times a year you go out and fight it

But with all our shortcomings do i love living in the south HELL YES
More things I love the sense of community among people the neighbors that know you by name and the people at your local store that knew your grandfather and want to tell you stores everytime you go in

One more thing i love about the south how people will lift up there fingers to wave to you when they see you you never see that up north they usually are flicking people off up there I guess thats all i have to say but dont get me wrong I absoultly love the south i was born under a dixie flag and by god i will die under one.

What I have observed in my 24 years in the south

Ok this is just going to be a musing of sorts so bare with me

First off I was raised in the south, there is no place i would rather be I have traveled to Ohio before but that all of leaving that I have done and I was only there for 4 days

Things I love about the south

The food no one can make better then in the south
Pecan Pie
Chocolate Pie
Collards
Greens
Chow Chow
Okra
Fried Chicken
sweet potatos
I could go on and on

The people is something else I love
This people will bend over backward for you no matter what
They couldn't be more nicer
words like Sug, Hun, and sweetheart are heard every where you go.
I love that people that don't know you from Adam still show you kindess

The Roots
I love you can drive for hours and never see the same things twice
Either you see a farm with a dog on the front porch with a swing like the above picture
tobacco blowing in the wind getting ready to harvest
or corn thats not doing to good because of the the weather
you always see some kind of beautiful land scape

And the sayings

"Yall come back now ya hear"

"Aint you sweet"
"Them darn yankees"

"No she han't" ( i have heard this from someone in my church before)
"Bless your little heart"

Now with all the good there is bad but for that you

Now for part 2 you will have to read tomorrows blog
