Two Young People I Admire
Two Young People I Admire
I’m so excited to be participating in the April Ultimate Blog Challenge once again and I’m going to use the suggested topic to blog about today. The topic is “Who Do You Admire and Why”, whether it be friend, family member, business partner, mentor or leader. I would love to write about my hubby who is my world but I did that last year. If you want to check out that blog about how someone I met on a blind date, to my husband, terrific father, grandfather and great-grandfather plus my forever business partner, here is the link from last year. http://themarthareview.com/who-do-you-admire-and-why/ Today I’m actually writing about two people I admire.
We have all read or seen when children are bullied by other children at school or their community. Most parents are livid when this happens and they try to remedy the situation which they have all the right to do to protect their children. But what about when parents bully their children? What recourse do children have against this abuse? There isn’t much they can do without more repercussions. Two children I know had this happen for years and years. Finally the daughter left home just before her 18th birthday, she got a job and completed high school all on her own. Her brother was put in foster care at 16 and while it was rough living in a new town, not knowing anyone and basically being on his own even though he had foster parents. He continued school, graduated, got a job and saved money to buy himself a car.
Fast forward four years, she is now happy with her love she met in 2015 and they are excited to introduce their precious little girl in August. He has met a wonderful young lady who is there for him and he there for her. While their younger years were not always the best, since they have been on their own, both have learned so much and grown up into wonderful young adults.
❤️❤️❤️
I am so proud of you and Zac and with all you have endured throughout the years you have managed to excel. There is no looking back, just walk that new path of happiness. Love you Alexandra.
Oh my god, Martha, you made tears come to my eyes!! What a beautiful story. I am so glad they are doing well now, in spite of everything!
Well you know me by now Jeanine, some of my blogs do that! But I hope they were happy tears as you got to the end. I am so proud of how both of them have overcome so much in their short lives. Hope my next blog makes you smile!
Beautiful! I love seeing young people who, despite life’s downs always push to make it past that and make an amazing future for themselves!!
Thanks for visiting April, both have gone through so much heartache but I know they will both have great futures.
It is always wonderful when two people can rise above their rough beginnings to become admirable people. Hopefully their lives continue to be pleasant in the years ahead.
I admire both of them so much Nona and while they will probably never be able to forget the past, they can make the future they way they want to walking down their new path. Thanks for stopping by and joining the challenge once again.
More power to them and god bless them. So happy to read that they are happy. Lovely post.
Thanks for the kind words snehal. They both continue to walk down their new path and I want to best for both, happy and trying to forget the past. Thanks for stopping by!
