That is true, it never did to me either, untill I began to understand that love is the answer to life's riddle. Now my life is falling into place as I live as, the love that I am. Sincerely, Moses

HG, Sometimes life doesn't make any sense at all even if you did not grow up as a foster child. Good and bad is found everywhere. Seek out the good. Forgive the bad. And try to feel okay. I think that's sometimes about the best one can do. Does that make any sense? Lovingly, DAS-J (soup mail)

Such a sad tale--the reality for far to many children. Good luck in the contest. Keep on writing! Karen

It must have been hard growing up in a foster home. Perhaps the relationships you develop with your students now give you a sense of family. Great entry for the contest! Love, Carolyn
