2 Sides....

So at work today I was helping this customer find something he needed and out of the blue he asked me if I was a Southlake boy, which is a very affluent suburb of north Dallas. I quickly responded no, but he continued on to tell me that I look and dress like they do. Now I guess i can take it as a compliment but I'm just wondering, why is America so obsessed with labeling and stereotyping people. Black, white, Democrat, Republican, rich, poor, everyones always interested in what category do you fit in. Why can't we just see through the lines of race, and wealth. I'm not going to mention the man's race, but it is still quite interesting to see what other people think of you. School is back in tomorrow. I guess it's kinda nice, I really enjoyed being able to stay up a little later and sleeping in late.
