Staring Down the Long Dark Road

[ghstlght74]

This economic recession has got me scared. And there is no way around it. . .a spade is a spade and this has been a recession for months now. The reason I'm scared is because health and social programs are always the first that are cut when trying to save money. I already fall through most cracks since I am neither black nor female. I fear that

Well, then we can't afford to stare down the road: we just need to take one day at a time.

I am being kept alive by a charity program, and if I lose my meds I might die in very short order.

We simply can't focus on that. We must just focus on the tasks at hand.

It's what everybody must do at this point.

The photos will be there when you need them. I think you'll know when that time arrives.

Think of it this way: those photos and those memories prove that you have the ability to be happy. Grab onto that with all your strength.

These are fearful times. But like Khrysso said, the only thing we can do is live each day. And remember you are stronger than you realize.

At this moment I am just sitting on the futon, watching television, and knitting on a hat for skeelig.

I like how you can knit and type at the same time, Gregory.

lame attempt at humor : )

just remember that you are loved. Embrace the strength I know you have and focus only on the things that you hold power over. ((gentle hugs))

Blessed be.
