Asking for help is not something I do or am in anyway comfortable with but here goes. Hi I am in my late 40's and I live in a tent under the freeway offramp in southern California. Many challenging life events landed me here, unfortunately, and it's taken my pride, self confidence, and dignity as well as every single thing I owned. All my memories and all my photos of my children growing up, all of my deceased family members," I love you mommy" letters, pictures they drew for me, not even a single picture of my mom whom I lost a few years ago unexpectedly. I have endured so much loss in these last few years it just doesn't seem real. All of my family has passed away leaving me feeling sooo very empty and lost inside. I found myself in a deep depression I honestly could not see myself climbing out of. And I stayed there for such a long time. And then one day I realized that all the family who I had lost weren't lost at all they were all together! In heaven! With Jesus! And they are all waiting for me!! And all the worldly possessions I'd lost, well you can't take them with you, to heaven. And at the very moment I did see the way, the way out of that very dark place I was. I am ready to get my life back. I've got a whole army of loved ones cheering me on RIGHT NEXT TO JESUS! WOW!! It just doesn't get ANY BETTER than that!
I am working on building my resume to seek employment. It is the 1st step in getting back into a home of my own. My needs are few but importantly a motel for a few days would be my priority. I need the proper facilities to confidently walk into an interview. Thank you for reading.
