I Am Here With You

Have you ever thought that you are alone with no one standing beside you?
Afraid that your next step will cause you to fall or fail.
Your never alone even when you can't see me that's when I'm with you the most.
I'll hold you hand through the tough times and laugh with you during the happy.
When you need someone by your side, I'm always with you.
Trust in me because I won't let you fall and I'll be there to help you see the positive in everything that happens.
I am here with you no matter what.
When things are at their worst that's when I'm the closest to you
Never stop believing that I'm not here for you because I'll always be here

It takes More Than One Person

Shame on us for forgetting that it take more than one person to change the world.
It takes one person to start the movement that changes its, but it takes all of us to make a difference.
It's inside all of us to make a difference, to change the wrongs that have been done.
One person and only go so far, but with the help of others the dream of that one can be never ending.
It's take one to save a life, but with many you can save everyone.
I don't want to save one person, change one thing in the world.
I want to save the country, I want to change the world to make it a better place.
A place where parents don't have to worry about their children being hit by gun fire.
A world where it doesn't matter the color of my skin or how I look we are all treated equal.
I want a world where color, race, religion, or sexual preference doesn't matter 
I'm fighting for a world where the news has more good news than bad. 
A place where now matter where in the world kids are playing in the streets and not having to worry about a drive by shooting.
It take more that one person to change the world it takes all of us because this is our world our home.
So join me and take a stand in saying "I'M GOING TO MAKE THIS WORLD A BETTER PLACE FOR NOT ONLY ME AND MY FAMILY BUT FOR EVERYONE BECAUSE WE ALL DESERVE IT".

I Just Wanted To Say Thank You

Thank you for all the happy memories that you've given me for the holidays.
I never knew when or if we were having a hard time financially because you always hid it from me.
Christmas time for us was always the happiest time, you always gave us everything that we wanted.
Never showing us that in this time of happiness we didn't have the money to buy so stuff.
For always making my holidays happy and for never showing us that things weren't ok
Hiding your fears and tears from us to make sure that we have almost everything we could ever want
I never stopped to thank you for so much that you have done for us.
For showing us how to be strong even when it seems that the weight of the world is on our shoulders.
As a child we don't realize how much you do for us, but now that were adults and have families of our own
I see now everything that you've done and continue to do for us. Your amazing and don't forget it because you are.
Thank you for the strength and for the courage to stay strong when times are hard, and for always reminding me that better times are not far behind.
This is to all the parents that during this time or any other when times were hard financially or emotionally no matter what your fought back your tears and hid your worries.
To always have a smile upon your face and gave me something better than what you can get in stores
You gave me the best memories that will last longer than any toy that the store could have made.
Thank you for showing me how to stay strong during hard times.

A.R.K

A Random act of Kindness
We forget sometimes what the holidays are all about
It isn't about the flashy gifts or the amount to money that someone spent on that one gift
This is the season for random acts of kindness, for the person that would ignore that homeless person on the street maybe they give them some food or a nice blanket.
We all heard the story about how 78 cars paid for the others order at Starbucks.
I'm not saying give your last cent to someone if it's going to hurt your family.
What I'm asking is that maybe you go through your clothes and children's toys and the ones that are in pretty good condition and donate them to your local Salvation Army.
Their is no such thing as giving to little or too much.
I know that because of the recession it hurt a lot of families and that's why I am asking everyone to pass this on and give a little.
Go through your clothes and your children's toys and whatever you think that is acceptable donate them.
But only if you can. It's never too late to spread the holiday cheer and helping someone in need out

It Doesn't Matter What You Don't Have It Matters What You Do

This time of year sometimes we lost sight of what matters the most.
It doesn't matter how many gift are for you under the tree what matters most is something that you can't buy in stores.
Family memories are precious and often forgotten by the glitter of expensive gifts
As parents we understand and now this but sometimes we too often forget the meaning.

I know that right now a lot of family can''t afford the Christmas that they want for their family, I'll admit that I am one of those people.
But instead of focusing on what I can't get for my family I'm focused on the gifts that I can and those ones are the ones that mean the most.
Those few gifts I know that when my boys open them their eyes will light up with excitement.
Doesn't matter how much I paid for them or where I got it from what matters to me is the memory of how even something from the 99 cent store can make a child's Christmas awesome.
Somewhere we as a human race lost site of what the true meaning of Christmas is but I have faith that we'll remember it.
It doesn't matter how much, what matters is what you do have.
Family, Friends, and those memories are more priceless than the gifts that you can buy at the store.
So while everyone is excited to open gifts I'm excited to see the pure joy on their faces. Because that and the warm memories I get spending time with my family is all that I could ever ask for.
If their was anything that I could ask Santa for Christmas it would be to give those less fortunate than I am to have a wonderful Christmas.
So as you think about Christmas this year please keep in mind that it doesn't matter what you don't have or can't afford what matters is what you do have. The gifts that you can't buy in stores are often the one's that are the most precious.

I Wish

I wish that I could give you even a little bit of what you deserve.
But I'm sorry that I can't, I really wish that I could though.
I can't tell you how much it pains me to not be able to afford something small for you.
Heartbreaking that even the food that you like I can't buy for you because we don't have enough.
While you sleep tight not knowing what's going on, I lie awake crying because I don't want you too see.
I've tried everything that I could have and time after time all I get is sorry but I can''t help you.
Can't even think about Christmas because I don't want to see the disappointment on your face.
My beautiful boys i wish that I could give you the best, but I'm sorry that I can't right now.
I would do anything for you guys just to give you a good Christmas, please know that I am trying.
It hurts me that I can''t even give you that but I promise you that I'm spending every moment trying.
Looking for a job so that way I can afford to buy you gifts, I know that once I find one I would be around much
But I promise that every second that I am away from you I'm think about you guys and wishing that I was with you.
I know that every moment that I am away I'm making some money to make things better for us.
So if anyone needs help with anything please let me know because I'll would be willing to help you, because you would be helping me in making these hard times for my family better. Thank you 

Wouldn't It Be Nice

Wouldn't it be nice if all our problems went away?
If everyone could be nice all year around.
It would be but that just wouldn't be where we live now would it.
We've tried everything that we could think of.
Asking for help, going to other places that we wouldn't normally go to.
How much more can we take? Being pushed and pulled in every which way
What is it that you want us to do? I just don't understand why are you doing this.
We are working as hard as we can to get out of the hole that were in.
Losing hope because all we hear is sorry we can't help or that we make too much.
How do you expect us to survive when we don't even make enough?
This economy is failing and it's only getting harder to find help.
Looking in all directions and taking almost every option but they all seem to turn us down.
What do you need from us? Why put us through all of this pain and before the holidays I don't understand.
Please anyone help us?
