It amazes me that someone can drive an 60,000 dollar car, have gold around around their neck and yet still get food stamps, gov aid.

I had an experience a while ago and I am not ashamed to admit that I had to go get on food stamps. I will do what I have to do to feed my kids.

 Anyway I was shopping with my 5 yr old and he wanted some kind of sugary fruity thing and I told him since he was being so good I would get it for him. A lady behind me saw me put it on the belt to check out and pull out my food card to pay and as I was getting him ready to walk back out side she said " could you use MY money to buy more healthier stuff for your kid please?" 

Well one thing that I learned from my lovely daughter Codie is to speak my mind. Something my husband is still getting used to. I waited for this lady out side ( AMAZING she parked one car over from me). Put my kid in the car and said to her " excuse me do you get a joy out of  kicking people when they are down?

 Do you know me? 

DO you know what I have had to deal with this past year or in my life? 

DO you know I am almost 45 yr old and have been working since I was 14.SO really just spent MY money honey. 

I have been unemployed for two yrs.  I have college under my belt and yrs of work in customer service and management and I got turned down for a damn job at F***kin Mcdonalds because they knew I would not work for 2 dollars an hour. My husband just lost his job of over 10 years and I have got 3 kids at home all special needs. That we adopted last yr. I suggest you shut the hell up and mind your own business." She went to talk to me with a look of  I can not believe you had the balls to talk to me like that look. I just put up my hand and told her to save her breath. got in my car and drove away.

 I saw her the other day it has been a few months since and I think I made an impressing on her because she smiled at me and said " how are things going ?" I just smiled and got out my food card and paid for my food and walked away. 

Sometimes being a bitch it well worth it.. Thanks Codie for teaching Me to stand up for myself.

Did you ever wonder ?

I have often wondered what makes certain people tick. Is there such a thing as good and or bad ? Is is possible that with everyone made the same way ( with the exceptions of those of us who are born from a test tube) but non the less made the same. Are some of us more prone to being a good person and some o us prone to be evil ? After 44 plus yrs of living I must I have come to the realization that the answer is without a doubt YES !!!.

While some of us go on day to day making a living or doing our best to keep our heads above the sinking ship of life. Doing good when good can be done. Living and loving with out warrant and without cause and seeing what it can get us out of life. Just do good because its the right thing to do. giving until it hurts. Whether it be giving our last few cents to that "homeless" person not sure what they will use it for, giving a dollar to the bell ringer, or just reaching out to someone in need. Helping that family who you know will NEVER ask for help.

And there are those of us who are out for one thing. THEM SELVES. Not caring who they hurt on their way to the top. Not taking into consideration whos feelings that are stepped on. Their own families,stranger. I have seen people walk, drive by a homeless person and yell get a job. I have seen people look at a old person walking across the street with a walker or can or just being older and being slow and get pissy because they are taking to long, rush to pass me only to turn a half a block away.  Hurt someone just to cause hurt. From Rape of any person, the murder of a child (or anyone) beating of a women. A women taking a mans kids away just because she is mad at him for something. Killing or causing a helpless animal pain. Use their power in life to see what else they can get out of someone.
Someone can cause so much pain and walk free, get a slap on the wrist and just live like nothing is going on or they did nothing wrong.
