Hey Guys! I just wanted to let you know that I made it to Massachusetts safe and sound. I had a little bit of car trouble along the way, but I made it here safely. I am really confused if this is the place that I am suppose to be. I have been thinking that this may not be where God wants me. See... I thought that my family had straightened out most of their problems, but this past week was complete ciaos. My oldest sister lost two of her children to the state. One of them is living with my parents and the other is living in a foster home. I feel so bad that he had to go there, but no one in my family could take him. I did speak to his social worker and made arrangements to have visitation. It is really hard dealing with these types of things when they are happening in your own family. I have to keep reminding myself that I can try to help them, but I can’t do it all on my own. I thought for years that I could fix my family. But now I know that I can’t fix all the problems in my family. I can be there for them and help them in any way that I can. I have come to realize that I cannot take all of their problems and make them my problems. In the past I have done that and that is why I wanted to get as far away from home as possible. I apologize for my rambling on about all that. I hope that you are all doing well.
