Comparing our life with others is only natural. That doesn't make it healthy.


from my middle grade novel, Triple B
Poem by Samantha Springs
         Myers’ side is greener
                                                                                   Pit’s side is meaner
            Robin has a loving family.
                                                                                                           I do not.
            Elliott plays high school football.
                                                                                                          Brad did not.
            Her mother is always home.
                                                                                                          My mom is not.
            Her dad is always sober.
                                                                                                          Pit is not.
            Robin’s house is safe.
                                                                                                          My room is not.
