What middle Eastern Country?

The Thursday, what can I say? My income was a joke. Ha. Who cares? So tonight I drove this guy that lived in Mexico the northern part. He knew the area that I went to school in western new Mexico. That was strange because most people that I drive have no clue about places that I lived. There was also a blind lawyer, man if there was ever a man that I want on my side it would be that guy. He might have been blind but the guy saw the world through intelligent eyes. There was another guy that lived in the middle east, a nineteen year old, drunk and mouthy. He just came back from living with his mom in Qatar. He was an arrogant son of a bitch that kind of scared me but I think I understood his anger. I lived in Riyadh the capital of a middle eastern country, when I returned to Canada no one really understood me. I had an advanced sense of cultural being. This sense was something that I was proud of but no one really gave a shit about it, this frustrated me. This kid was kind of in the same situation, I think I helped him feel better. Do you know how? By telling him that no one knows the truth about anything no matter what they think, that includes me, fuck am I ever an ignorant prick, but I've seen a lot of shit, but fuck I bet you the blind guy sees more then I ever could.

nice deep stuff.

easiest set-up for a bad punch line of course.

if justice is blind, then a blind lawyer might be the only one who operates at the level of justice. i dunno, something on that level.

" I had an advanced sense cultural being." hmm i wonder what you mean by that

a blind lawyer.. was he blind during his studies or did that happen after? either way, it's rather admirable.

noelia you rock
advanced sense of cultural being means because of the over exposure to different environments and cultures during my up brining I know who people are, at least I think i do,
ex- when I moved back from saudi arabia I felt there was going to be a terrorist attack somewhere, I was fifteen, all my high school teachers thought I was full of shit, and I failed many papers, but I was right in the long run even though I did shitty in social studies in high school, know I don't care about what others say about my opinions We'll all see in the future, just because you're wrong now does not mean you'll be wrong tomorrow

I agree with you... but it's not just the world that does it to people... its any life changing experience...

No one ever gives a shit.... and when they do... it's far too late... i get it...
