I'm very lucky. I know I am. I've never known true want, never had to worry where my next meal or my next bed would come from. I've had warm clothes in the winter, and the money to have a pet, or go to the movies, or buy Christmas presents.
Which is why I feel so awful when I read about stories like this. It's just wrong. Dammit, no one should have to worry about losing their home. Ever.
Ever.
I will be donating what money I can (not much, but every little bit helps). And I will be pondering what I can donate to the auction.
I also want to take a moment and thank everyone on my flist for how generous they've been. I've posted a few of these, and we've helped some families who really needed it. I know it's hard out there. I know everyone's having problems making ends meet. Thank you, all of you, for everything you've been able to do.
Thank you. It's folks like you that really bring home what this season is about for me.
It's about helping our fellow man. I don't care what religion you are, what god you follow or don't, what you believe. In the end, we're all human beings, and dammit, human beings help one another.
Thank you again.
