Once upon a time, there was a woman without anything in the way of family. She had a time in her life when she was very close to being homeless. She had been through more than enough in her life and she was more than done. Living in her car was going to be a step beyond what she was willing to endure. She made arrangements to trade the brand-new iPhone that she had just gotten really cheap through Verizon's new-every-two plan to a street punk for a gun. The last step in her plan was to find a home for her pets with someone she trusted. That person turned out to be an angel in disguise who offered her the chance to live for free in a beautiful old house in the woods--in a peaceful place where she would be safe until she got her shit together. She was so sick of her own internal drama and of how goddamn melodramatic her emotional life had always been that she never told the angel that her generosity had made a far bigger difference than she knew. She never forgot about the beautiful old house in the woods or the kindness of the angel who opened its doors to her, and the last time she was heard from, she was living in a beautiful place and going to school and was content...and while she wasn't there yet, for the first time in her life she could imagine the possibility of living happily ever after. The End.

Girl, when I read this I cried. I had no idea at the time that you were so low. I am glad I could be there to help. You ARE the best editor ever! And I miss you. I am glad you are enjoying life and have gone back to school. You are so smart and I know you will kick ass in what ever you decide to do. I love you and I really thank you for writing me such a lovely comment. I felt very lonely and that just made me feel connected! Thank you!
