Saturday probably my least favorite day of the week. Too tired from the work week, too tired to complain, just too tired. Exhausted. Living in transit with only God to lean on. I've made a lot of friends reflecting back on my fifty years of existence. First 18 years were memorable and I remember them with fondness on days of complete sadness. Life is a misery. Some occasional moments of happiness but mostly just disappointment, struggles, and anxiety. Trying every day to better myself but this world takes a lot out of me. Help me Lord. Help me to become happy once again.

I guess it's really over
October 24, 2021,
I failed in recognizing what she was doing to me. So blinded by her beauty, her pain became mine to bear. It was hard but never felt burdensome; until I let her take away my light and replace it with fear, doubt, ANXIETY, and most of all loneliness. We met in a homeless shelter and I was captivated instantly. She looked so fragile and innocent. I just wanted to hold her and tell her everything would be ok if she let me help her. We got to know each other, taking walks together downtown where the shelter was located. I just wanted to love her and mostly I wanted her to love me back.
We moved out after a few months the shelter helped us find an apartment in our budget. We made it work. For two yrs. Made it through so many struggles with her depression. She got a matching tattoo that says 'Loyalty' and I asked her to be my wife. She always accused me of being unfaithful to her and she became very abusive and drinking daily made it even worse. Alcohol is the worst substance in my opinion when it is abused. She chose the alcohol over me. I'm living in my truck since September 30th. She stayed with me while we both were working steady and had plenty of income to live 'happily' at least I was happy but she really wasn't. We could have went back to the shelter together, but they test for alcohol every night with a breathalyzer. I knew she wouldn't be able to get it under control as did she. She left me October 18th for a very young man that she worked with. She hasn't responded to any of my Facebook requests or phone calls. She just completely ignores me. I guess it's because she feels somewhat guilty, but she chose to hurt me instead of taking another option like staying with a female companion, she moved in with another 'man'. I'm so broken.

I love my kids
Children are so awesome. Every since child is a blessing. I have learned so much being a parent. My favorite occupation is being a good father. I take pride in accomplishments, and my continued growth. I love you all very much. We had so much fun yesterday. Thank you Jehovah for giving me the opportunity to be a father! God is good.

Sheltered Living
It has been an interesting experience indeed; being without a residence! Liberating, tiresome, frustrating, exhilarating, and sometimes depressingly lonely. I love my life, I miss my children, and I miss sleeping on a mattress. Simplicity and simplifing your life is fundamental to surviving the vagabond existence. The biggest risk factor I have found in living at a shelter is the influence that others at the shelter can have upon you; if you allow it. I am generally a quiet person and I try to be careful who I associate with. Folks can bring you down even if you are having a great day. My advice for today is to surround yourself with positive influences. Seek out likeminded individuals, those with positive goals and good morals. Your day will go much smoother! Remember that life is a gift, and give goodness to those around you and it will return back to you. God Bless. And thank you for reading.

Homeless but not without a 'home'

I hear a lot of 'self help' and 'positive thinking' advice, and I usually can take it with a grain of salt: take in what can help me; then spit out what is merely gristle and filler. I'm looking for the core of the problem so as to find a solution not a quick fix. That's where I want to focus my efforts: the root of the problem. Sometimes the root of the problem/or foundation is our family, a close acquaintance, a work mate, or a loved one. Often it is someone close to us that has a direct impact on our life and our outcome, and is often the direct cause of our dilemma. What do you do then?
-'FAKE IT.'
-Roll with the punches.
-Swallow your pride.
-Buck up.
-Man up...
That's the world's advice.
Here's my advice:
"Persevere in Prayer".
Start every day in prayer.
Focus on spiritual pursuits and concerns helps to lift my spirits.
Give to others.
When I'm feeling down, I bow my head and pray. Prayer before bedtime with my family really adds a sense of closure to my day....endure and persevere through prayer.
"Thank You Lord for Your strength. For allowing me to make it through another day of life in this tiresome system we live in. Thank You for allowing my family,my immediate and distant relatives and all of mankind to survive another day of life. Watch over us always, bless us and keep us safe in Your loving arms. In Jesus' name, Amen."
God Bless you all
