my day

today was another day that I live
i barely made it though yesterday
everyone in my village started to make a riot to try to tell the government to make a change
we need food and we are starving

we can't afford to buy what we need

it is getting very tough for me and my family
i went with out food yesterday to feed my wife and my new born son
i had to go to the market and steal the food from the vendor when he was busy with customers
then he saw me and i didn't get enough for my self
but at least my wife and son have enough
today i am without money and food
i fear my son will starve and die
he is my only son
i wish that he will grow up to become a great man
unlike his father
i can't even make enough to feed my entire family
i have become a criminal
a robber
i am no better then the ones who steal from the poor
how will the vendors live,
if they cant sell any thing?
they need money also
how will they feed there families?
how would i feel if they stole from me?
what would i do?
i would die inside
and i know i soon would die outside as well
and if i die what will my family have?
they would have no food, no one to help them
so am i doing the right or wrong thing?
my family needs to live
and they need food
but i have become corrupt
well i can't keep this up
i have spent to much time writing
when i could have been searching for food for my family and I
well i'll try to continue this later when my soon has been fed
