I'm sorry to hear that life is difficult for you also.  I know how hard it is to lose a job and I hope the two of you are back in the green, so to speak, very soon.  Struggle does bring growth and challenge, indeed. Thank you for reading.

Life's experiences
I got layed off and now my husband got layed off. We're struggleing as well. I was looking for a job on the internet selling my poetry. But everything costs money.

What you did was incredibly sweet.  A random act of kindness, indeed.  Thank you for reading and leaving a footprint here and in my pay pal account.  I hope you find some special blessings for your situation, also.

Cass, I know you'd send me a million dollars if you had it.
I know you'd cook me dinner every night just to make sure I ate if you were nearby, and come look afta ;) me when I was sick.  I don't know this about a lot of people, and I haven't known you very long.  Please, love, don't feel bad.  I am trying to be strong, but I really am scared because I just don't know what to do to make this all come together and do the right thing for myself.  I do believe.  I am reaffirming what that means about every 5 minutes. Thank you, sweetie, I am grateful for you.

Sweet Abuelita
Thank you for the kind words, and I was thinking about how fun it would be to hang out with you.  One day, I will come meet you and the doggies, but hopefully not with my life's possessions strapped to my car.  I think it will be okay.  I hope it will be okay.  Oh dear, please just light some candles for me.

I'm really sorry to hear about your situation with your husband's employer, that is awful and must be very scary for you and your family.  I lit a candle for you tonight, and I hope that the universe creates money and resources for you also.  I am also having problems with insurance, etc, but I know that must be so much more difficult with a family.  Please don't feel badly that you can't help me, your good wishes and kind words mean so much.  I am working on the writing avenues with some fellow writers that are making some freelance money.  It takes some time, but hopefully it will pay off shortly.  Take care of yourself, and I hope things work out for you really soon.

Just got my first paycheck today!
I can't afford a lot, but I've been in your shoes more than once and wanted to share a few bucks at least.  Hope I'm not the only one who can give up just a meal out or some other luxury to help.

Temple,

You are in my thoughts and prayers--I have just sent you an email rather than post it here.

Temple, you have no idea how helpless I feel right now. I have been trying to work out how I can send you something, but I can't even pay for the things my son needs right now. I will see what I can do next week. Be strong, believe, ask the Universe as I know you are doing. xox

Temple, I can only offer my home as temporary refuge, here in Middle Desert
We will have to eat Ramen soup together and hide your kitty from my old black dog, but peace abides otherwise. I, myself, just salvaged my gas for hot water and cooking today. Must scramble for car insurance and electricity next week, rent the week after and there is no food but Ramen soup here, and dog food. But, there is an extra futon which would cost you nothing while you 'thought' about life paths.

I would if I could
...but I have -$10 in the bank right now!  I will send all the good thoughts I can your way, and maybe a little bit of something that you can actually count after Montana's ultrasound and rent and car insurance and the gas bill are paid next week!  Jeez, they say money can't buy happiness, and that's true, but it can make a decent down payment.  All the best to you.
