Struggle to survive

Struggle To Survive

I can not hide from pain that I have had to struggle with; that I have to survive with.

When people see me holding a sign saying,â?? Will work for foodâ??or when

I am walking down the street pushing a shopping cart, with all

my things in it, people donâ??t know just how hard it is to struggle to survive.

I guess I am the only one who can really say just how hard it is for me to survive.

The world today it is not the same as it was back then. There are so many laws

and other things that have changed. We donâ??t understand how we got

this way, but it is true, being homesleshomes lessame, and you donâ??t have to be

ashamed. It is hard when you lose it all like your job, your house, your car ,

and the ones you love most. So please, take a good look at yourself before you

look at me, as I go by, with a shopping cart and all my things in it, or you see

me holding a sign,â?? Will work for foodâ??. This could be you just trying to survive.

Whatever you do please donâ??t give up on life as we all have to struggle to survive.
