Humanity begins at home.

I don’t think I would have been where I am in life if it wasn’t for your sacrifices. A widow who had to step up at a young age to care for her 2 orphan girls. You are my rock and how ever much I annoy or worry you, nothing in this world can replace you in my life. Us being apart now scars me because I know you worry for all of your children and your missing out on our journeys. We are all apart trying to find our own paths in life. You are my rock mama and your definitely the father figure in my life. We don’t Normally express how much love and respect we have for you as a woman but your my Michelle Obama. My ophrawini. To me, no woman is as strong and giving as you. I am blessed to carry your face around. Your beautiful eyes and lips. A kind heart you passed on onto us and most importantly, you brought us closer to God. “Lord protect that woman because you know she’s my life. There’s no gift good enough than her life”. I always pray for more life for us so that I get to make all your dreams come true. You have invested so much in us your children and especially me because you had to raise me in the most difficult and painful moments of your life. Just at one year old, my father was rested.You stepped up mama and I know you will always be my backbone. There no words I would say to show you how much I appreciate your existence. But all I can promise is I will not let you down. Stay alive and you will be able to enjoy the fruits of your sacrifices. It breaks my heart when I can’t help you. But be strong mama. In a few years from now. You won’t have to worry no more. I got you love.

Jason's first love and crush, Part 3
Jason is slowly adapting to being in foster care, however; he is still hurting about Mr. Jackson. Despite having two gay foster parents, he really hadn’t developed a bond or trust with them yet. Jason hasn’t built up trust with his psychiatrist either. Jason feels alone, isolated with no where to turn. His foster dads take him places to see if he will open up to them, but Jason only clams up the more they try. But things are about to take an even more sinister, evil turn for Jason. One that will shatter his confidence and trust even more.

Home of the Brave
A mom’s job is never truly finished—Elise knew this instinctively when her son was born. For at least the hundredth time, she sat next to his bed in that chair mending his quilt. There was no way of knowing, the day she bought it at a flea market, that it would become her son’s most valued possession.

My first childbirth was scary
I have seen a lot of films where the women give birth, and show emotional bonding with their baby. And the audiences see time fast forward of the baby growing up…and blah blah blah. Well, I just had my first baby but it wasn’t like the movies in fact it felt like I was traumatized, I didn’t have a normal birthing process, this was due to me being 40 years old, and developing Pre-eclampsia. In case you didn’t what it is, “Pre-eclampsia is a complication of pregnancy. With preeclampsia, you might have high blood pressure, high levels of protein in urine that indicate kidney damage (proteinuria), or other signs of organ damage. Preeclampsia usually begins after 20 weeks of pregnancy in women whose blood pressure had previously been in the standard range.” I got this information from https://www.mayoclinic.org/ click the link below to read more about it.

Retirement Apartments for Seniors: How You Can Make the Most of It?
The idea of retiring home to enjoy life in peace and solitude is very appealing. But, in fact, this concept is quite difficult to achieve. Even after having spent a number of years in retirement, it can be extremely challenging to leave behind the comforts of your previous lifestyle. In many cases, this transition period is particularly tough when it comes to finding a suitable place to retire.

The women with many Ballons
The night was warm and cozy as i just got off the phone with my best friend Ruby. I really enjoy her company Because she really understands how it feels to be a normal human being. we spend many days together going for walks, swimming, going to concerts you name it. But the best thing about being with her is that shes a great person to talk to and is so down to earth. but the thing about it is she is the only one that knows my secret you see i struggle with Bipolar disorder. meaning i have mixed episodes, depression, mood swings and slight anger not to mention being annoyed easily. she knows this but she wont tell any one Because not everyone will understand how it feels to be stuck inside your head over time and over thinking about things that are not real. you see i suffer from intrusive thoughts which means i have unwanted thoughts that wont go away. and with psychosis well lets not get into that i have slight fear of things such as thinking my drinks are drugged or thinking that I am a criminal. when i am manic i feel like i am famous as if i am known world wide. i feel like i am the best singer and that all the guys love me and that my beauty and voice is beyond amazing. But when i am feeling low its like i want to die i feel nervous and that i am not good enough. i feel like everyone is not very supportive of me and that no ones care. so because of my disorder i tend to stay to myself. I feel you do not need many friends or family to get you through life, you have a small real circle and your self. you have to understand that all people with bipolar are not dangerous, by the grace of God i have not been to jail and my personality is good so to speak. when my best friend ruby is not around i like to draw, color, and do self projects. Its good to say that i do not have many triggers and that is only because i was blessed with calmness and i was raised by a well respected and real women her name is Aunt Evangeline. Aunt Evangeline was a well respected women she loved me dearly but she was strict and kept me in order. I tend to take my medicine but their are times when i am off it and that not a good thing. at times i am not focused and i am not good with keeping myself clean. I due to depression i do not like to clean up and my room is a mess for weeks. I have been to jail for fighting and now following the law which i was drunk driving. But i know God still loves and forgives me for we are not perfect. My aunt Evangeline is so supportive of me because she got me introduce to God, it was had after my parents died from a car crash, i tend to get moody from it and do not want to talk. The only time i would ignore is when i am having a bad day and i do not want to talk it out on anyone else. But one thing my aunt taught me is instead of ignoring go to the man upstairs he will guide you and understand you. I do go to God at times and i can clearly say that without him i am nothing. summer time is here and the birds are singing very merely in the trees. The sun was shining brightly and me and ruby decided to go to the pool, i gained a little weight but that is ok i an still beautiful. My aunt made lunch and drinks and now i was ready to enjoy my day. we began to splash and play and jump from the diving board. i love this i said, me too said ruby even though we do no have any ice cream to cool us down. after the pool we began to go home the sun was setting and sooner or later it would be time for us to head back to law school, this is it i said looking at my foot of the bed. I looked at my medicine i was currently on Risperidone and one thing that i can say is that it has helped with everything. I began to fall asleep knowing that the next's day starts a whole new chapter of my life, good thing the medicine has helped me with stressful times because with out it i would be back in the mental hospital wasting away a good future.

Ask Not What The Society Can Do For You, Ask What You Can Do For The Society
My parents always say we are honest people and honest people follow the law because that is how society works in their era.Unfortunately in life, times change and society isn’t always the same.
