Belonging

      
           Have you ever questioned if you belong somewhere or with someone or a group of people? I don't know about you, but from time to time I have. I have questioned on if I truly belonged with those who raised me. Questioned if I truly belonged at the schools I have attend (especially high school). I have even questioned if I really belonged here on this earth at all. Sometimes even wondered if it was worth it at all. 
        Lately, I have seen episodes of a televison seires on the Freeform (formally known as ABC Family) called The Fosters. If you haven't heard of it or seen it, its about a teenager who has been in and out of many different foster homes, has finally found the one foster home that finally becomes her forever family. It talks about not only the foster care system, but helps those who go through the system find where they truly belong. I even love the theme song to the show its called, "Where you belong" by Kari Kimmel. You all should listen to it and comment what you think.
   In all the things that have gone through my life and the number of times that I have asked 'Where do I belong?' I can say that the six months I have been living here in Sulphur Springs, Arkansas I can finally say that I have FINALLY found where I belong and the family I truly belong with. I definitely feel loved, protected, happy, and overall feel like I actually belong. 
      For those of you out there who feel like you don't belong somewhere, just remember this, it might take some time for you to feel like you belong somewhere, but there is a place where you belong. You will find that place, you just have to keep looking and don't give up on it. I know what you are going through and I know how it feels to think that there is no where and that you don't belong anywhere, but it will turn around and you will find that place. Don't stop looking just because it gets hard or it seems impossible because even though it is hard, it's not impossible.

Much Love always.
