So the Buddha said

Mommy: Why you watch the ladies? Why don't you go out.

Weezee: No, Mommy. I can't. They have to leave first.

Mommy: You chicken? Why not?

Weezee: Because Mommy, we're not allowed to be seen by them.

Mommy: What! Why not?

Weezee: Cuz . . . customers think all the cooks are Asian.

Mommy: Tssshhhh. bullshit. I tell you. You human. You are equal. We are all equal.

Weezee: I know.

Mommy: Do you? You scared to go out. You think they better than you? No wayyyy! You equal. You think because they pay for us to make food they better than us? You think because a person dressed better than you they better? Because you not dressed well, you not good? I tell you, when I go out to hotel or restaurant, when I get time, I never go to four star. I go to FIVE STAR. I work hard. No one know how much money I have. No one better than me. We are equal. You see them out there, they not better. You don't know who they are, what they do.

Weezee: I know, mommy . . .

Mommy: You chicken? Be more confident. We are humans. Humans are equal. I don't worry about that stuff! My English not perfect, I not care! Mommy still talk to everyone 'dee dee dee dee!' No one better than me. We all equals. I not afraid. No one better than you! You go out there, you let people see you, you see people. We are human - we equal!
