Most Recent Posts Drive Safe!Posted Aug-23-07 10:07:11 PDT Single parents should join the circus. That's where the good juglers go? It takes skill to jugle Kids, Bills, Work & R&R! I thought I was good. Then BAM, I was RAPED! Then lost my car. Don't jugle tickets. Losing my car has CRIPLED me more than RAPE! We were made remarkably well, we trully can heal from anything if we stay open and face our fears head on. We can even survive without a car. As a single parent though let me say this "I am trully ashamed of our society today! People really do not pitch in to lend a hand to single parents who need help. Sure there are government programs that will help but again you need to jump through hoops to get the help and jugle while jumping! People are too caught up in gossip and talking about what is needed. I now trully understand what Hillary Clinton meant when she said "It takes a village to raise a family (or child?)! " At least I now know who my real friends are. I am sad to say I have 2. I am trully grateful for them though. I just wish that we did not need groceries as often, or school clothes or supplies because They too have a life and we have gone without milk for a week or better at times and had to use socks that lost thier mates as toilet paper. I could name 15 -20 family members and friends who I have housed, fed, given rides to, loaned(given) money to when needed and so on... These same people dodge my phone calls now! You would think they would at least ask me if I need a ride to the store when they were going anyway! I do feel sorry for how shallow thay are! At the same time I must thank them because at the end of this I and my kids will be stronger than ever and will trully apprieciate what everyone else takes for granted a CAR! |
