One reason why I'm on MFP is because of my early childhood. My mother was a single parent for all of my childhood. She would work 50-60 hours a week to keep up. Sometimes she could make it home and take me out for fast food because she was too tired to cook. Most of the time it was up to me to feed myself with what we had. Week after week for months, it seemed like all I would find was saltine crackers and raw hot dogs. I've now made the connection of why food is so unimportant and why I haven't cared about my diet.
I can't change my past obviously but I can change my future with better choices. And I can help to change someone else's. Throughout the year a put a little money aside to save for this time of year. I go to the grocery store and walk around looking for what looks like a single mother who looks like she's debating on what things to buy and trying to make the money stretch. I buy them a cart full of groceries so at least at some point the kid will have more options.4 -

What an awesome thing to do 🙂2 -
I was an undiagnosed dyslexic and only clicked it when my son got his diagnosis. Very different from my day when you were just considered a bit dim!
Good news - he knows it won’t hold him back and we now share coping techniques. The best one is using nicknames to remember new names - good fun as we share the same sense of humour 😂

Whilst i appear to have a great life, I suffer from severe depression and have struggled to come to terms with the fact I was abandoned by my family at the age of 16 and have had to become self-sufficient since.10

My second husband was a psychologically abusuve narcissist who cheated on me and destroyed my life. After we split, she identified as a trans woman and needed my help, so I supported her through a very difficult gender transition. We’re close friends/family forever now, and she’s a much better person.7

WOW! You are obviously a VERY forgiving person! I doubt know I couldn't be that nice to someone who did what he did to you. Kudos to you.1 -

I am really into random acts of kindness. I've paid for groceries and nuetering, coffee, etc. Last week in Dollar Store I paid for the couple in front of me. My dream would be to be rich enough to go into a store and pay for everyone's lay away. I hope I will inspire others to do the same. Last week the cashier that handled the transaction in the Dollar Store was blown away. I hope that it will inspire her to do the same at some point.3

This is one of my tattoos. The Dying Gaul
The Gauls were defeated by Rome. Many of the Gauls fought in the nude with only their swords and shields. After their defeat this statue was created to celebrate Rome's victory but also to memorialize the Gaul's fierce bravery.
What it means to me? We are born into this world naked (ignorant) We go into battle (life) with only our wits to protect ourselves. Our victors (demons) may defeat us but we'll put up one hell of a fight.3 -

I cannot hold serious conversation. They all need to include sexual inuendo, sarcasm, humor, and inapproriate things.8
