It bothers me when ppl complain about what they have. Their house isnt big enough, they dont have enough money to get their nails done, they didnt want spaghetti for dinner. Like really?! There are ppl that have nowhere to go at night to sleep but the cold hard ground. There are ppl who dont knw how they are going to feed their kids. There are ppl who dont have the necessities in life! I was one of them! For the last 23 months i was homeless! I had been working but up until yesterday i had nowhere to call home. That was my punishment for leaving an abusive relationship. That and he kept my son. So before u complain about things remember there are ppl who wud love to have a warm meal a warm bed less worries! Im greatful that ppl prayed for me and i prayed and worked my butt off bc i wudnt be here today. Evn tho its tight i at least can feed my family (dh, dd and myself) and we have a place of our own. Ive been on both sides and its nt fun having everything taken from u.

I believe you speak for all of those out there just trying to make ends met and those who like you couldn't. Glad your back on your feet and I'm pulling for you and yours to make it through. roe

The "poor" in the USA have so much more than most any poor person in other countries.  They would be considered rich here.

 I count my blessings every day, whether big or small.  Something we should all do.
