Eric,

Although I am aware that culture and values play different parts to a person....

Let me ask you this ?

When the day is done, and you look into the mirror....

Do you see a 'rican' man ?

Or just a man, that needs to find himself and do the best he can to live each day with Dignity, Honor and Grace regardless of those cultural values ?

I'm not blastin you here, I just am curious of how those values have defined you in the past....and has that always been a stumbling block for you.....

Just a question, and I really don't need the answer to it.....

That is for you.....
