(Here’s the thing when you’re born into something you can’t control you have to develop the right mindset to pull yourself out to have a better future.)
I was born into a small loving family mother, father and self. I didn’t know I was poor/ low class I only knew meals and stuff came with effort and work. Times didn’t get as rough as a child till my mother passed away. Times got hard and your still learning other stuff you just know your family is in a “tight spot” and you had to eat what is provided and wear clothes that are hand-me-downs or last years. As a child born into poverty you try to understand but all you have are the WHYS? ( like WHY does a family member get to eat steak while we have to eat deer meat and beans, WHY do we have to hunt or kill our livestock just to survive, WHY they get to Denny’s or out to eat, WHY does she get the toy I’ve been begging months about, and she didn’t even earn it. It’s WHY! I didn’t understand but here’s the thing a child aint supposed to know the whole family is broke there suppose to focus on finding who they are not there next meal, shelter, or proper nice clothes. Many people go through this everyday but as the adult now I won’t let my children feel the way I did at such a young age the WHY so I wake up everyday and try and get them what they want and need with or without obstacles. I will do what it takes to have my sons but there with the big men in suits, and my daughter to be the lady in the fancy dress I might not get there but I will do what it takes so my children will. I do believe that poverty is generational for sure but only your mindset will be the only thing to get you where you need to be. I know people right now who where born into a trust fund but their now living on the side of the road in reality it guidance I believe people who grew up and are born into poverty are most likely going to get better guidance than someone born in to money. Poverty sucks but when you lived this way your whole life you learn I GOT TO GO HARDER! ONLY I CAN WANT A BETTER LIFE! Those who have not been handed a silver spoon to get there life going are the ones who work 10x harder it gets stressful but all of that progress and effort is way better that the sliver spoon handovers cause you did the hard work. In the end you can pull your family together and be the silver spoon yourself cause I want my grandkids to say I got this because my GG did that she worked her ass off so we can live our best life.
