To paraphrase Tupac: when a rose grows from concrete, proving nature's laws wrong, we don't ask why or how. We see the scratches and damaged petals as evidence of the struggle it went through, and then we celebrate its tenacity.
But when you grow out of concrete, instead of being wowed by your growth, especially out of all the troubles of survival to make something good out of your past lifestyle, folks tend to keep bringing your past to your notice, as if people like you aren't built for change, or as if they have always been of the 'Sirat Al-Mustaqim.'
But if there is one rule in life that I have learned on here today, from the 'Status Update' of a certain young lady that I admire so much is: "phuk what they think."
