To me, Prosperity is a DREAM, a DEEP HALLUCINOGENIC Trip w NO TRUE Foundation and NO Chance of REALIZATION! Unlimited STRESS! Disability and the DARK SHADOWS of Poverty have all but cut the HEARTLINE of Hope I've tried for years, like a LIFELINE, to hold fast to, only to Realize of late that the other end of the LINE seemingly is unattached to anything sturdy?
Prosperity would be the ABSENCE of such BLACK THOUGHTS replaced w Happiness, SERENITY and thoughts of a FUTURE?
It
is a known understanding that there are those who look down on people
of low income or even use it against them and
even more if there is a hint of a disability?! You'd think Poverty is
enough of a Disability let alone anything else?
Daily
worrying about what are small insignificant things to others like
finances, food, whether you're going to eat that day, utilities,
housing and when rent's going up, to name a few
are added spices to the Huge Boiling STEW Pot of one's
Life! The inability to get
proper glasses and other medical needs just add to the confusion?
In my view
Governments are not fully behind the Elimination of Poverty and as
goes the Gov't so do those who follow that Gov't?
BAND-AID
solutions by Gov'ts to make them appear to care
and help are just that
– BAND AID - Especially when they don't include a Cost of
Living Incentive clause which
would eventually leave the recipient way back where they were before
such programs or worse!
Utilities,
food, household, medical adequate housing and rent costs plus
leave people in poverty a long way from PROSPERITY!
The Canadian DREAM
– living a LIFE
as close to, of happiness, SERENITY, Hope, FAMILY, LOVE and
NOT being put down
by other
people or
Governments *NOW THAT WOULD BE PROSPERITY!!
- SOMETHING THAT WE
ALL HOPE FOR AND
STRIVE FOR - SOMETHING
THAT IF WE LOOK DEEP IN OUR
HEART and SOULS WE COULD WORK
TOGETHER TO TRY TO MAKE SUCH A DREAM COME
TRUE FOR
ALL!!
