Soulful Trailblazers
Kids making good choices!
Welcome to the Soulful Forest.
It's not on any map or chart, it ultimately resides inside your HEART.
The entrance is through the Garden of Gratitude, because we know that all good things in gratitude.
A hike up to the top of Mindful Mountain gives children an appreciation of the here and now.
Sometimes they must travel down the River of Resilience. Life sometimes hands us fear, loss and grief.
Once they learn to navigate the rapids, they will always end up in the calm water of the Reflecting Pond where they can see their light and acknowledge what they learned about themselves.
Traveling as needed to the Field of Forgiveness, they will learn to L.A.F. (Love, Accept and For-give) themselves so that they are able to Love, Accept and Forgive others.
The Tranquil Tree is where a child learns to get space between how they FEEL and what they CHOOSE to do.
A skip to Camp Kindness is where the critters remind kids about compassionate civility.
The WellNest Clinic features a beautiful bird name Dr. standing by to teach children how to protect their bodies and live a life filled with robust strength and optimum health.
Diversity University is where children of every color of skin, treat each other like kin!
Be careful of Camp Chaos at Belly Acre's Farm-where everyone is constantly alarmed! (too many screens)
Dedicated to the child inside of all of us.
Your Opportunity to Help a Child
Soulful Sydney, Inc has created a program for children living in a home with substance use disorder.
All about the program blah blah blah
Faith
I am Faith. I'm the only one in my school or neighborhood that has a relative that does heroin. I'm not going to tell you who it is. I'm still trying to keep it a secret. I think some of my friends mothers know and they are really extra nice to me. That's how I know that they know about the junkie in my family. I can't believe that someone I love actually puts a needle in her arm. I just can't believe it. I lay awake at night wondering how she could do that. What will make her stop? I just don't know.
Lucas
My name is Lucas. I hate drugs. I just HATE drugs. I don't want to tell you why I hate drugs. I just do. It ruined everything. My dad went away and I thought it was because he didn't like me. And then I found out he died from drugs. I'm mad all the time. I want to hit something. I hate drugs.
Nevaeh
My name is Nevaeh but everyone calls me "Nevvy." I live with a lot of people in my house. I have an older sister, who is not really my sister because my mom is living with her dad. She is a drug addict and she ruins everything. The fighting and trying to keep her from doing drugs is wearing me down. I told my mom to move but we don't. I wish my mon had never met her dad. I have a real sister and she and I don't do bad stuff like this. I don't know why we have to live with a drug addict.
