Guided by prompts from WDC blogging challenges... and of course, life |
HI! I'm Jenn - and I'm all over the place (well, at least my mind is). In this blog, I have attempted to gather my thoughts on things prompted/inspired by WDC blogging challenges from "Journalistic Intentions"  , "The Soundtrack of Your Life" , "Blogging Circle of Friends " , "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" and, well, LIFE.    |
PROMPT September 20th No one knows you can't afford food. You do not want your co-workers or neighbors to know. How do you manage? Do you go to a local food bank? Maybe visit a good friend(s) at the right time (Dinner time)? Do you somehow scrounge for leftover or unwanted food? I have been in this situation a couple of times while my girls were growing up. I have never had so much pride that I was afraid to let people know when my family was struggling though. Food banks can help quite a bit when a parent is trying to feed their growing family. There are also benefits in place to aid families in need (food stamps and the like). I wouldn't just show up at a friend's house though. I am sure others have their own problems to deal with and they might also be in need of food for their families. But, there's still the option of collecting cans to be recycled. They might not bring in enough to pay bills, but the money you can get from trading them in at a recycling center will help with the groceries. When you are in need, you will find ways of taking care of your family. And there are plenty of honest ways to do it. Word Count: 219 |
