Suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us. Hallelujah!

From the ashses rises the phoenix. I have been a victim of circumstances, doing my best and handling my responsibilities
as best as I see fit all of my adult life. Yet, I have dealt with health issues, loss of employment, unfair business practices and corrupt lenders. Now I am not going to simply be an ignorant citizen. I will be infomed and fight back if need be. I have always been somewhat of a pacificst but the truth is if you don’t stand up for yourself there are others who don’t mind being dominant predators. Are you content being a mindless drifter? Or do you want to make a difference? The answer is up to you.
Yesterday, my room mate’s son was killed while riding
his bicycle to school. He was 8 years old. I had to
be strong last night as I watched Carlos go through
hell. I had to be the voice of reason as he wanted to
kill himself. Everyone was blaming him for buying
his son the bicycle that he was riding.
