Brief Author Bio:

I'm a 36 year old single mam of 2 wonderful, amazing children who never let me forget that you CAN do anything if you have the passion and will. I learn this daily just by observing them.

I don't have many family members left really. Mostly just my kids and my sister. But I have great friends and a co-parent raising my kids. (my daughters dad) who also falls into the 'great friends' category.
I guess you could say I'm a hard person to get to know. And I am. But once I know and trust someone into my inner circle, their place in my life is firm and usually for life. I am fiercely protective of the people that I love and care about. I am generous to a fault sometimes and when I love its forever. Thats just how I am.
It's not conventional and it's not as easy as the alternative way of life, but it's the way I really am and wouldn't change it for anything.

I've lost a lot of people because of some of these ways, but i still love them too! Some people can handle it, some can't. It's not my business to place blame. I'm just trying to survive this crazy place just like everyone else. We have to help each other when we can.

This link below is my 'chosen cause'. Please help them/us in any way you can> Donations of money are good but there are other things you can do which are JUST as important. Like donations of TIME. Taking the TIME to take the hand thats reaching out for help. Be a volunteer on the hotline. Talk to people by using the internet. Or just spread the word to other people who may be interested or willing to help this cause. Every little bit helps and you may just be saving someones life. Think about it. Thanks.
