Empathy

Connections

by Vonia Martin

My goal, of late, has been enlighten people on the struggles of foster children, particularly the older ones that are going to age out of the system.  One way to do that is to bridge the gap between foster kids and "normal" people and empathy may be that bridge.

If there is one thing we can all relate to lately is this pandemic and the social distancing we are doing. For a foster kid this is normal, they spend their lives isolated and distanced from every one. If you want to know what it's like to be a foster kid put yourself in isolation, (foster kids are forced into isolation with little to no reason) take away all entertainment and communication abilities. Now live that way indefinitely with no family or friends. Now you have an idea of what it's like to be a foster child or adult (if you live long enough to become one).

These kids get little to no explanation as to why this is happening to them, only that they no longer get to live with their family. Since they are the ones removed it only makes sense that it's their fault that led to them being moved.

Where every line is a square

by Vonia Martin

This may make no sense to anyone or even more disturbing, it does make sense to some one. In my mind every line is a square because I bend both end at the same time toward the other until they meet, making a square. What if a straight line has two dimensions already? When we then bend said line we are squaring it? This is probably nothing but just in case thought I would throw it out there. A triangle then becomes the cube or the third power, which in my mind makes more sense since it has three sides. This may explain why I got a 'D' in Math 055 the first time and failed it the second time.

Not having had a lot of traditional education and aging out of the system in Arizona I have a unique perspective on the world and how I think it works. All is learned through my observation and memorization of what takes place in and around it. It has become one of my missions in life to report what ever finding I have as honestly and without prejudice as I can. When I realized this couldn't be done I decided to hate everything equally instead, this I can do. I call it my version of the EOH. lol

I think I'm funny, anyway. Not many foster kids become home owners and if they age out of the system not many of them will become anything. Incarcerated or dead are more likely.

People read my stuff and say I'm negative, well that's a negative statement so do two negatives make a right? Hell, yeah they do if you multiply them. Just a little humor. hahahaha
