Author's Chair

                                      Foot prints of survival



Common sense cease to exist

The obvious become unknown

The desire to socialize becomes annoying

Loud music is needed for affection

Fancy clothes to ease the pain

To know true love will never love you back

Prevent destiny from finding you bitter

Acceptance keeps you sane

Smiles keeps the questions at bay

Pedicure and manicure help to ignore poverty

Slim figure and exercise maintains self-esteem

Healthy looking hair gives proof of good hygiene

Clear skin helps maintain eye contact

                                                

                                                          Where?


Where do we go to feel secure?

Where do we go for help with homework?

Where do we go for help with the children?

Where do we go to increase our self esteem?

Where do we find a peace of mind?

Where do we go when we are homeless?

Where do we go when we get angry?

Where do we go when get overwhelmed with life?

We must provide for one another to know where to go!
                                                      

                                                            Why?

The non educated man asked

Why should we work when public assistance is available?

Why should we try to get promoted when more responsibilities are expected?

Why should we try to keep ourselves up when we are doomed at birth?

Why should we straighten our hair when it's going to kink back up?

Why should we dream when we have to wake up?

Why should we not eat unhealthy food when old age is inevitable?

The educated woman responses was.

We persevere to teach the chosen ones. That is why!
