Hi blog family!
Been very busy trying to get the book to the public!! I will try to make my blogs shorter for now, as time is very important! I hope you are all well and enjoying this life!
Message for the day:
As soon as you wake, you should do so with joy!
You are alive, YOU are with health!
You can create change-in an instant with your mind and attitude!!
Wake up with a smile on your face and joy in your heart- you should feel like you won $1 million dollars- everyday!!!
Life is not promised to us forever-so enjoy it each and every minute/day!
Teach your children to wake early-with joy- not complaining about its too early--too early for what? for life?
to live?
to explore all the earth has??
NEVER to early!
Smile when you go out your door (and when you in your house with kids)...your energy WILL effect how they act: if your angry, mad, yelling, upset, nervous, loud, mean, violent--how can they become anything but that!..
You are in total control of your life! (yes, even if your "broke"- ) that can pass-if you start planning how to get out of poverty, depression (you can NOT have alot of tangable money and REALLY enjoy life!) I am proof!!
I make do with what I have!
You have to learn this, it is not taught in a foster or group home because everyone in charge is thinking since you have a roof" you ok....NOT
we have to learn how to enjoy life and ourselves-with or without family, money etc..
Please wake up "feeling" great- how you feel will determine your day toward others...lastly..."smile, someone may be watching you", especially if you have kids! xo tanya
example...:)
This is a place where you can come for advice or a kind word. If you are in a group home, Foster care or had no family due to any circumstance, There are many things you may not have learned. I hope to motivate change in your life! If you have no family to inspire you on bad days, you may find something here to show you how to get out of your bubble and "take back your life! * These words are my opinions only and based on my 16 years in foster care!

problems or challenges
hi blog family!
Real talk- being without family can be a challenge at times.
Like when you need $50 for gracery's because you had to pay for your medicine..because your insurance did not cover it)..have you ever had that one emergency that could literally make you homeless, carless, foodless, bookless (for you college aged out folk)..or that one time you NEED money to fix a health problem: teeth, antidepressant...whatever...it is a need BUT you don't get help that day... It happens when your on your own.
But I can say this: "this too shall pass"...this is what my foster mother use to tell me when i thought things were bad....all things change..
remember that and know that to have your health, sanity and choice of freedom....freedom to start a business making earrings or scarves next week!
you have choice, health to start a business cleaning cars or detailing for cars, you have a choice to start your babysitting service for poor mothers in your area...Don't ever think that you cannot get through a tuff time, the key is to stick it out!! Bad can't stay that way forever, even bad gets tired....
I know you will have ruff days but we all do, without family you may have to stick it out al little longer, but remember this builds charector and you will be the type of person that has gradtitude when you do have...don't envy or be jelouse of others who have family that bail them out- be grateful that you have a chance to be bailed out by the universe- because all things in this life change and be grateful for what you have today...
you are loved, special and needed xo Tanya

politics-what can you do
Hi blog family! Below is a quote from my friend Joyce in Italy-
"Living your life fanatically cannot possibly be healthy for one's mental state. Live people and stop going crazy over politics, politicians and what they are and are not doing. It is what it is...Either do something to change your political situation and "walk like an Egyptian" or deal with it. But beating a dead horse will not change your country's situation"-JY
Alot is going on in politics now that is effecting you and I getting jobs! But we can sit and sulk or rise and take action. I am anti-war and always believe peace, talking and compromise should be the best solution. Only animals "fight" that is why we can talk and they can't-
I stop watching TV because every time i turn it on-something depressing (a word i do not like), something telling me what to do, who to vote for- make your own decisions, do your own research-if you are interested- if not don't complain about our system-especially if you did not vote or protest! It is what it is-like the lady said and it will never be anything more, until we rise like the youth of Egypt or go to school to become law changers, politicians, head of state etc... I am proud of the youth of Eygpt- they show that unity does work! I have a friend who is now able to go back to his country because of the victory! always stand for what you believe in or you will fall for anything!!! Life is beautiful, the universe is full of possiblities- but they will not come to you and change will not happen by itself, it takes each of us DOING something!!!
You are needed by the universe- get up, get out and do something today that will save or change a life- xo Tanya

recovering relationships
Hi blog family- I'm back!
Relationships after foster care.
It is hard to have any-when you have no good example to choose from.
So if you are not sure how to pick a good mate or friend-stop picking the bad ones- the one who has all the drama, gossip, negative words!
If nothing else, you know that ANY relationship should consist of two people that respect, admire and love each other for whom they are-never trying to change them or mold them, accepting them with flaws (as long as it is not drama or you doing all the work).. both parties should get something out of each other that makes them do better, love harder and want to be greater!
Don't settle for crazy, lazy, drama friends and mates-
life is short-only surround yourself with people that love you and have your best interest at heart IF there is any hint of jealousy, envy, hatred, mean spiritness- ABANDON SHIP!! God put plenty of people on the earth for you- its up to you to find them!
You are loved, and the universe needs you to get yourself together so that you may help the other 500,000 kids in foster care!!

hi
hi blog family!
i am not able to blog regular the next week, so please be patient. i put up a video i wanted you to see about an experiment done to show how most people would do whatever they were told, including murder, if they felt it was justified (an authority told them to do it).. this was only a science experiment were people had to "shock" the other person if they did not answer a question right. the shocks had higher levels with each question but most did it anyway even when one guy who was shocked screamed and stop responding!
The point of this. I want you to come out of your box or comfort zone when it comes to doing what we are told. We were made with individual minds and must use them accordingly. If God or the universe intended for you to be a clone--you would have no brain! Please question when things are not going fair or right, find out why or why not, who or why, in the end, slavery, the treatment of the native americans (still) and holocaust happend because NO ONE questioned one person!! it is your responsiblity to know and to only do unto others as they do to you, xo Tanya
