When I started coming here it was more of a simple to-do list thing because my idea books and shopping lists are very messy and there’s too many of them lying about. This is gradually evolving into a life-goal list too, with all sorts of long-term goals.
When I say that I want to be someone’s angel, I do not mean this necessarily in the romantic sense. In fact, I think maybe I’d prefer that it weren’t. What I do mean is that I remember what it was like to feel alone in the world, living on just enough hope to survive for another day. People have told me that I’m a strong person to have made it this far, and all I can think is, what happens to the people who aren’t as strong?
I’m really not the most understanding or compassionate person in the world. But as I start gaining some distance and perspective I feel like whatever strength I have is a gift, something that needs to be shared with people who really need it.
