FOSTER KIDS UNITE: OMG MAKE NO EXCUSES

FOSTER KIDS UNITE: OMG MAKE NO EXCUSES

OMG MAKE NO EXCUSES

OMG, i was watching Wayne Dyer on TV today, (rare, i don't like tv), anyway, there was a young man on there who was burned beyond recognition....he was showing the audience his drum playing skills.....with no "hands"!! yes, you heard me, no hands! I believe the title was "No Excuses".. it was powerful for this young man to tell his story and to say that he had to be the one to get burned, because he had many to teach to. I often feel i had to be abused because if it were anyone else, they would be on drugs, in a phych unit, or dead from self inflicted wounds! I know now that i had to go through my abuse to HELP OTHERS! I know it is not about ME! Once you learn that your mother did not give you away because she wanted to ruin your life and that it was not your fault, life can start to happen.. I am glad my mother gave me away, especially when i look at where i would be if she had not, WOW! God is amazing! We can no longer make excuses of why we are not at our best, be like nike, just do it! God did not bring you through all of this pain, (he did not cause it either, he just guided you through to safety), to leave you. If you don't beleive in God, the universe is fine. You are hear for a reason and you will be a blessing to someone else, if you do the work on yourself, love yourself and know you have purpose! xo Tanya

Realizing your Dreams




Did you have a dream that fell by the way because you did not have the proper support?

Do you think your too old to do it now?

Remember, it is never too late as long as you have breath in your body and a mind!

There are times when we all feel we will fail at our dream, so we don't even persue it like we should. We stop making the calls, makeing the contacts, making the work that would have got our work noticed.

The universe gave all of us gifts; some may be writing, painting, singing, dancing, talking, (yes talking and listening can make a great counselor), sewing, reading, sports player, whatever you do WAY better than others, could be one of your gifts!

Try to work on it, perfect it. You will know it is your gift if everyone likes and or notices it MORE than anyone elses! If you are a person that was in foster care or in an abusive home as a child, you may not have the confidence needed to fulfill your dream. I am here to tell you, you have the strength, just believe in your talent and yourself. Don't 2nd guess yourself when you know you are the best at what you do. The universe sends us signs that we are on the right path, but we usually ignore them,

example: lets say your dream is to be a famous singer one day -

in one week you meet 2 music producers looking for singers, and you see a sign for a singing contest and then you hear on tv that a new show for singers is looking for talent to be on the show.... all of these were signs not coincedance! follow your dream, whatever it may be! last week i told you to discover your talent or gifts, did you? let them take you to a higher finacial level in your life, get paid for what you do well, (LEGAL OFCOURSE)

Don't ever give up, it is never too late, get an internship, go back to school, get a mentor, there is no excuse not to achieve your dream, dream big and don't stop! xo T

YOu are special!!

Looking for the "Perfect" Me!



Have you ever been searching and searching, for the perfect you, all to find:

GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF THE CLOUDS!

there is no one on the face of this planet perfect!

We are all trying to be the best me we can be. You don't have to search, its in your heart!

You can feel when you are treating you well and you can feel when you are at your best. We are all a work in progress

. Don't judge yourself by others, love yourself and others.... I spent my teen and twentys looking for perfection and myself, i am how the universe intended.

We have flaws, we want things, we need people, we hurt, we can be happy...

WE ARE HUMAN!

allow yourself room to "mess up" as long as you pick yourself back up and keep going, that will lead you to the best you!

If no one said: you are the best and you are loved!!Tgirl

Avoid drugs and alchohol


hi all.

ok we all know doing drugs and excessive drinking is not good but if you are depressed or isolated, its not a good idea. Think about when you are in a bar.... you are talking to people who have poisened themselves! When you are "drunk" you are poisening yourself! what a crazy concept.. go out to have fun, get myself sick, meet more sick people and we get sick togeather! I was in a resterant/bar recently and was appalled at the fact that: "NO ON LISTENS" when they are drunk and your conversation with them is pointless... (ok i am really going off here)..

Ok the real point is, if you feel bad about yourself, why do a chemical or drink that will make you feel worse, or give you a false illusion of feeling better and as soon as your sober, your back to feeling low...

i suggest to anyone in foster care or any adults who have issues that are hurting them mentally , solve the issue first or work through it, don't use drugs and drinking as an escape, it may catch up to you..

Did you know that if your father was an addict of any kind, you have a 60% chance of becomeing one if your a boy and 30% if your a girl!

This world is hard to navigate alone, You need your head clear.

if you want to escape take a trip to Paris and stair at the Eiffel Tour, go look at the flowers above in person in Brussels or go visit the nearest lake and walk around enjoying the beauty, (don't jump in)...you are worth alot to this universe and we need you here...

if no one told you you are loved, please be kind to someone, it may save a life! xo tgirl

When your back is against the wall, what do you do?

When your back is against the wall, what do you do?

Everyone is faced with turmoil at some point in there lives, it is more of a challenge if you don't have family to back you.
imagne if:
your living arrangements are not working out,
the rent has gone up.
You have to pay your car insurance or eat.
You need to see a Dr., but have no insurance.
You have no where to move to and may be homeless if you don't think fast.
You have no money in the bank, heck you have no money until payday, (if your lucky)...
WHAT DO YOU DO?
NOTHING!
That's right, nothing. When you are cornered and have no options,
you must listen to the universe.
YOU NEED COMPLETE SILENCE!
I have said before, silence is needed to solve most problems.
If y0u are always talking and others are always talking, the tv is on, the children are talking, the dog is barking,
How can you hear your message of what to do?
How do you find your gift that will allow you to prosper or your key to get out of misery?
Silence!
LISTEN to the universe,
it never lies....
when you think it is over or you are at your end remember in the storm....
"this to shall pass"....
if no one told you you are loved and VERY SPECIAL,
peace and smile all day monday!
brighten someones day...Tgirl

What Do you have on your mind??

Good morning to all! What a night!
alot on the brain can drain you.
When you have alot of things on your plate at one time, STOP! BREATH! LISTEN!
yes, listen, the universe is trying to tell you something!
If we are always rushing and filled with anxiety, how can you hear your good message for the day?
YOU CAN'T! quiet your mind, turn off the tv, radio, (and people)....go somewhere quiet, take a walk by some water or trees... recenter yourself, that is the key to easing the mind.
When you are in a chaotic state, it is because you allowed all the chaos to take over.
YOU ARE ALWAYS IN CHARGE, even when it does not seem like it on the outside. It takes one mind shift to change our mental circumstance, DON't let chaos win! You are always in control because it is your mind, use it or lose it!! hey, have a blessed day, and if no one told you, you are loved and special, Tgirl
if you have any questions or need encouragement email me with foster kid in the title tgirlcooper@yahoo.com

Good day to all. Do you see how beautiful those flowers are? Did you really look?
Have you ever realized how blessed you truley are? When you wake each morning you should greet the world with a smile and gratitude. To think that some of us did not wake this morning or we woke with illness. No matter what we are going through living is always better than death. I want you to always choose life, because it is yours and you are a gift to this world, find out what it is and be grateful you had another day to do it! If no one told you, i love you and have a blessed day.

Hard economic times have hit some. Did we ever stop to think about the 26,000 or so children who are released from foster care every year? The world would be a better place if we were less selfish. I have faced a few situations in my life that needed someone to intervene. I have been fortunate enough to have total strangers help me. If they helped me to eat for the day or gave me a place to sleep for the night is irrelevant, the fact that they helped is what really mattered. There are many homeless, living in their cars or sleeping on a park bench, what can we do to help? Trust, privacy & safety come to mind when i think of helping a stranger. Maybe we can start by helping someone we know? I know many are hanging on by a thin thread due to this "recession", what is an ex foster kid with no family soppose to do? My advice to you, call on friends but be willing to sacrafice your space, time, privacy and be open to bartering, working extra hours to help them with bills. If you are of able body, never stay with someone for free, try to offer a service until you are on your feet, pay one of the bills, buy grocery's. You don't want to be a burden, you just want help to figure your way out. The local YMCA rents rooms to single men and woman. See if someone is renting a room in there home. Take a job that requires overnight hours, do whatever it takes to survive. DO NOT EVER SELL YOURSELF OR YOUR SOUL and stay away from drugs and drinking, you need a clear head and sober mind. If no one told you today, i love you and have a blessed day, know that you are special, tanya

Hi to all. i hope your day was pleasant, how could it not be with the sun shinning and we still have breadth?

ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE that is the message for today
Maybe you are living in a bad situation, know that change can happen in an instant
In the meantime you must be grateful to the universe for allowing you prescious life.
This is the most important gift and we take it for granted and let others take it away
if you are thankful for life and general health, your brain can be open to ideas that will allow you to step away from the mess your in.
Don't think, why me,
think i am still alive,
my brain is still functioning,
what can i do to get out of this situation
the universe will always give you answers
you must quiet your mind
listen and know that you are special
live long enough, wise enough, and you will see how special you are
May you be blessed and please say a kind word to someone else today
pray for others to be well and prosperious
peace and blessings,
Tanya

Welcome online foster family!!!

Hi, welcome to foster kids unite! I am excited because i know that one person can make a difference but us working togeather can help more foster kids.
There is nothing like leaving foster care and not having no family. Holidays are lonely, in fact it is often a high time for suicidal thoughts.
Being without family can also lead to drug use or latching onto any partner that will have you. You deserve the best and just because a parent gave you away or the system took you away from family does not mean you have to settle.
You are special and the universe has great things for all of us who plan.
If you don't have any family or was abused by your foster family and cannot go back for holidays, let me know via email and i will try to contact you for the holidays.
I want you to know that even if you were abused or neglected today is a new day and you have to love yourself and then the world will follow. I want this site to become an online family for those without. It matters not where you live. Don't forget to let me know what you are thinking, please be kind to someone today, kindness is contagious! Don't forget its National foster kid month!!!
