Waiting in Line at the Drugstore II

His journey to the drugstore was the most challenging part of his day, as he was faced with racial discrimination as he was forced to wait in line until every white customer had been served first. He felt terrible every time he had to go to the drugstore. Waiting in the line while white people stared at him, made him to feel humiliated as a human, and he knew he could not change this. However, he won at this game of waiting; he found the successful way against all these prejudices and against the painful wait in the line in the drugstore. He found his own refuge in the books, he noticed one day in the store’s “lending library”, and in this way he overcame some of his feelings to feel less important in this world and lost himself in the wonderful world of literature and knowledge. He discovered that these books were a window into the culture and wisdom of great writers. Sometimes, we should take as an example what this boy did. He defeated all the existing prejudices against the blacks in that time and he moved forward, becoming a better person, with a better education and culture ultimately, he became a writer and a well educated man.
