Working is a part of life that I know I have always had to do in order to meet basic needs and to survive, and I feel we all should have to work for our fortunes in life, otherwise you are probably going to expect hand outs, or help in times of need from others, and truth be known the world is not as giving andf helping as they once were, so it's best to depend on no one except ourselves in surviving and meeting our needs in life. I am a very strong and independent woman that experienced the working world responmsibility at a younger than normal age, at only 16 years old, when I had no choice but to get a job because I was pregnant. I was a mom by the age of 17 years old, and had my own place that I shatred with my husband and our baby, and I went to school and finished with my senior year with getting my diploma, worked a full time job at a sub shop as a shift manager, and was also a full time mom that took care of my baby and our home. It's a fact that I have worked ever since the age of 16 years old, and I may not make enough to become rich, or even close to wealthy in working as I do, but at least I do work and depend on no one else to take care of the needs and to help those survive that are my responsibility, and I care for there every need in my hard work that helps to make me into a person that I am proud to say I am, without ever taking hand outs or charities from others. I realize that in some cases these things are much needed and thats a fact I realize and excuse from being wrong, but for there are some people that take these things and expect these things to be giving to them, and never once think in anyway that the job is the real soluition to solve there needs and wants problem, and in working for the things they have, it will make them much better people than the takers that they are showing themselves as being. I can say I've worked for all the things I have in life, and it may not be muchor enough to make me rich and wealthy in finances, but by being a hard working mom, the wealth is raising children that will have a great work ethic in a future that it's needed of which they can be working tomorrow, and I'm the right example that they watch in preparing them to work hard for all there wants and needs, and in preparing them through my exampler they see in my own work ethics I show, the best part is they will apply these things from my example and work hard in there lives depending on no one else to get the things they need or want in there
