What does our future look like?

​There is a crisis in the United States regarding the future involving the children of tomorrow. In San Francisco alone there are 950 children in foster homes who will age out with no life management skills. Although, the state has recognized their mistake by passing bills, there are still the actions that need to be taken for these children who have been through very traumatic situations. Almost 50% of those homeless, right now, in our streets, are under the age of 26 and have aged out of the foster system. We have yet to see how many more could be saved or with 950 more homeless. We all have busy lives and we can’t put the blame on anyone thing. If that’s the case than I could blame those who choose not to help to stop the crisis. With reasonable thoughts and ideas, take a look at the future. Do we really need our economy to continue to decline because we put blame on others, or do we want to look back in the future and be proud of the difference made from the effort of helping. The motto is united we stand. Divided we fall. The separation of families in the US has made the children of today bitter, cold, disrespectful, and with every right to their reason. We can change that. To begin, there is a program called SF CASA – San Francisco Court Appointed Special Advocate. It is a volunteer program. I just hope that people find the joy in just helping, at the same time molding a child for a better future not just for them for all of us. 

Michael Jackson had the idea when he and several other artists sat together and produced “We Are the World, We Are the Children”. Our children are our future. We make them, mold them, create with them, we make them into the human beings they are tomorrow. Unfortunately, not everyine has had the greater chance of having a loving home. Even if it wasn’t loving. It was nonetheless a home. I have spoken to people who were less fortunate than I who were forced to live that life style, because their way of living is a style and they grew up feeling neglected, abused, used, and the worst, no one they could trust. When they see someone who puts trust in them thwir only guard from feeling volnerable is to do what has been done to them. As they see that I am someone they could trust, even though they have done things for me not to trust them, I continue to show them that respect. It makes them see that the world isn’t so cold, people aren’t always so ugly, and there may be some life in them. 

People want facts, they want evidence, they apply statistics, they compare, but they forget to see that EVERY situation, person, place, thing, ALL is not the same. What may be okay for me, may not be okay witth my daughter, but may be okay for my son, and not okay for his father. That is of coutse just an example of how one famoly could have so manu differences in just by making a choice. When we choose to do nothing or choose to do what is wrong knowing it is wrong and refusing to do the right thing for selfish reasons, what do you think will happen? Do we deserve to live in a world so cruel. Or do we deserve to live with peace and in harmony with life itself. 

Here is a question I have asked plenty of people. There is no right or wrong answer because it is how you feel you should handle it. If the end of the world started RIGHT NOW, Armageddon was going on right now, what would you do? The sky is falling, there are zombies out of nowhere attacking, demons are seducing, the worst of the worst with fire from hell breaking loose, how would you react to that? 

Maybe tjat’s why our children of today are as bitter and I feel less emotionally attached, because the end of days, although it shouldn’t be that way, everyone for themselves. No one will look out for each other. No one will stop to think or stop to help others. The greed of America has struck like a lightning bolt. In a world where people have to fight for HUMAN rights, that doesn’t even sound right, fight for human rights, is so inhumane. We have done it. We allowed the devil to win. We fed it’s glory where Jesus and his soldiers will come down to battle the evil. Aren’t we ever so lucky to have Mary and Jesus. If it weren’t for them, God would have already sticken us and there would be no more man to exist. Animals are more civil.than humans. We may have the intellect but we don’t have the morals, values, decency, respect, loyalty, honor, and most definitly we lack being unselfish. 

We are the world, our children our future, whike fighting for human rights, who is going to be fighting their own demons? Can anyone help you? Only you could prevent the fire of hell attack you. You choose. It is your free will.
