Thanks Guys. What I do know -- from others such as yourselves, is that I DO have to work to keep that connection. It is budding now, and I want it to BLOOM as I know, totally, that it is really the only way to be happy.

Profile Information

Why I'm choosing to give:
God has blessed me in so many ways recently. I have had not one, but 2 of my dreams come true in a matter of weeks. I DO give back, but I think focusing in such a specific manner would really benefit me.
What I'd most like to receive:
Continued blessings as my higher power sees fit. Good people in my life. The realization of my personal hopes and dreams.

Keeping Track of My Days...

DAY 1

I was outside a building on the Southside. There was an older man there, smoking. I began a conversation with him. He was waiting for his group therapy to begin. The guy spent the last fifteen years in prison. For the last six months, he has been in a community reintegration program. He knows he is damaged. How can you not be? Fifteen years is a long time to live as an animal.

I gave him words of encouragement and a fresh raspberry/white chocolate chip chocolate cookie.
