Being property of others, being separated and segregated from others because of my own government, I myself would not be thankful to them. Abraham Lincoln, however, I would thank him and his followers. I would also thank the people who chose to believe that it was wrong. The torture that our own people endured, our friends having gone through that misery… I could list the reasons why I would not be thankful, however; due to my kind nature, I am opposed to violence, rage, and holding grudges. I believe it is not healthy to do such things. I personally, do not think that the idea of being able to even own a person is right, but that my very well be my own biased opinion in others minds.
I believe that everyone is created equal; that no man, woman, or child should be separated, ignored, or treated differently for who they are or how they were born. Being born with a learning disorder, I understand what it’s like to feel different and to be looked down upon by others. I would feel indebted to the people who helped me; but not the people who chose to hurt me. The government would have my thanks for a few things; however they would not have my sympathy for making a bad decision.
