I always felt sad as a foster kid when I was in the system. Now as a single adult, I hate them even more because I still have no family, not even foster sister or brothers to share it with. I feel more a lone each year, often wonder if there are others out there that feel the same as I do?

As a more then 3 yr. foster kid it is hard to not be with your family during these time, but i do it. I love my family and honestly would rather be with my foster family people who care then with my bio-family who don't care and tear you down during these seasons be strong you can pull through it. I did and i used to run from my problems so if i can do it i think anyone can.
