EXACTLY.
I grew up in a slum, then went to foster care, then I joined the military, , once out of the military I moved, then went to college, and school for my profession. I don’t live in a big house or have a fancy care, but the house is paid off, I have no debt and my oldest right now is in the marine corps boot camp at Parris Island, all my kids are honor roll and have never got into trouble and have manners. Been married next month for 21 years.
Life is what you make it and yes there are ups and downs and sometimes you don’t get a job or promotion based on favoritism etc, but you move on and don’t blame others or play a card as a victim.
Shame that is not what is being taught in many areas of this country today seeing as most now want to play a victim card and go crying about it.
Ya’ done good, Manc! God bless ya’, pet! :) You’re an inspiration.
