I Wasn't Born to Cowtow

Okay, lets get something straight- I wasn't raised to cowtow. I was not taught to be subservient. To be a servant, yes, but not to cowtow and feel lowly.

I have allowed myself to become a slave to the dollar, or whatever my chosen currency is. This is not to say that I am greedy. I am more a victim of the system, of things being the way they are and having been like this for a very long time now. This situation, this set of circumstances- it is all akin to a brigand unto those of stern, yet still vulnerable- stuff. I was not raised to confirm too much.

Again, I can serve without being made to feel like I am crawling out of the depths of a pit full of dirty stash. No, no. There is so much more to life than that.

Right?
