Playing the ‘Color Game’ and Pursuing the American Dream
- Share via
Holy Family High School should waste no time! Why not award Gabrielle her diploma now? In spite of the stress she suffered, Gabrielle mastered the color game, although the color she really chose was not orange (lower class); it was green, the color of greed.
Gabrielle should be shoved with all possible force into a more advanced program called “Reality 101.” In that course, Gabrielle will have to deal with the truisms of life: the ups, the downs, the joys, the stresses. The challenging portion of the course is to determine whose “deep pockets” she can pick should she become disenchanted with life.
At commencement exercises, Gabrielle’s accomplishments should be summarized: straight A’s in greed and self-righteousness!
