  It took less than four hours for Sarah Bailey and her younger brother Curtis to lose everything they knew. She lost her school, her mudpie stations, her church, her father, and her name. Everything they own is packed in garbage bags as they are moved to a new foster home. It’s supposed to be a safe haven for them, but as Sarah—now called Anna—learns, their so-called safety comes at a horrific price, as she is groomed and abused by her new foster mother. 
  But Sarah/Anna is resilient. She adapts to wearing dresses after only dressing as a boy. She befriends a wild and dangerous horse. And for her first Christmas ever, she receives a rag doll, one she carries with her still today. For a child with so little, the rag doll comes to mean so much. 
  Based on a true story, author of Just Another Slice, Dr. Zaffarese-Dippold continues to share her foster care story in the series “Garbage Bag Life.” This book in the series sheds light on the grooming behavior of some sexual abusers, and the risk to children in the foster care system.

  The Allegory of the Cave

  Plato, S. George Boeree

  Imagine a world where shadows are reality, where knowledge is but flickering illusions cast upon a wall. This is the chilling vision of Plato's Allegory of the Cave, a philosophical parable nestled within The Republic. More than two millennia old, it remains one of the most haunting explorations of truth, perception, and enlightenment.
  In this tale, Socrates describes prisoners trapped in a dark cavern since birth, chained so they can see only the wall before them. Behind them burns a fire, casting the silhouettes of unseen objects. To the prisoners, these shifting shadows are the entire world. But what if one of them were freed? What if he turned toward the light, stepping beyond the cave's mouth into the dazzling reality of the sun? Would he embrace the truth, or would the brilliance blind him? More importantly, if he returned to the cave, could he convince the others that their world was mere illusion?
  Plato's allegory is more than a story—it is a challenge. Are we content with shadows, or do we dare to seek the light? His message echoes through time, urging us to question, to learn, and to break free from the chains of ignorance.
