Two thumbs up! I am thankful to wake up every morning, without being hit or degraded. For cryin out loud, I was talking in my sleep to co-workers, and got hit for not dreaming about our new house. I do not take my freedom for granted.

I have met alot of people in the last year or so, and see the ones that blame everyone else for their own misery. Don't hang with, or listen to 'em.

Spread a smile. It's free, it feels fantastic, it's contagious, and nobody ever gets hurt, no STDs or anything negative! :) 

 It starts on an individual level.

Eloquently abridged as to my comment. I truly send you the love of God as i understand it. Go into the peace that surpasses understanding. To God be the glory.

Oh, how beautifully put.

thank you

Dag i liked you on your soap box climb right back up there a tell it like it is. My God is a powerful God, and he works wonders when we be come the clay in his hands. But if the clay gets hard then you have to let it soak in a little water. Isn't it funny how every thing that we know comes down to H2o. If you want to be the clay  i think, that first you have to learn to be the water. Just a thought from an artist who has seen the best of times and the worst of times. And now is ready for what ever life hands me. And thanks for the time people spend trying to make this world less full of hurt and pain. Just remember when every thing is aganist you, that no one is nailing you to a cross. What do we really know about pain?????????????

People complaining about not getting help

hi Laura,

I was having a bad week that week.  I just said what had been on my mind for a while.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels that way.

Take care

Don't get off your soapbox! I have spent hours and hours trying to find assistance for people. And I can barely feed my kids sometimes. It's only by the grace of God that I have a roof over my head. I cry for strangers,  and sometimes I get the same thing. It's really sad that some Americans have become so material. I know people that have lived without electricity or cars or running water for years and years , and don't complain a lick. I complain too. But , not about Aidpage, this place is the best place to vent, because most people here, really understand. Thanks for saying what a lot of us are thinking! We can't do all the legwork for everyone, to get help, you have to work at it. God Bless.

You go girl, I haven't been back to aidpage for awhile now and I started reading some of the posts and as an Aidpage Aumni I want to say to all of you that have come here for help, IT'S HERE, help is here but you have to dig and read and dig some more. I know from my own experience that Aidpage angels like Ekikaseven have volumes and page after page of info on grants,and resource outlets, government programs, local,state and federal levels of help for anything from medical help to rent to getting milk for  your kids. All you have to do is look, I am going to list just some of the names of people who have worked day in and day out to provide good solid info for those who need it. Quit complaining and start using what you have and that is a BRAIN, use it. Curley--Elaine of TSA--FriendshelpingFriends---Ekikaseven---Rosie327---Who-Knew---Brighan---Soulight--If you don't see their names on the main page type them in on the top of the page on the google window, make sure you click on aidpage under the window. Now get to work, you will find help, I did and decided to stick around. OH! by the way, when you do find the help you needed, it would really be nice if you thanked the Aidpage angel that helped you. I left out so many other aidpage angels, please forgive me, but it really tics me off when people come here and if their not given money within 10 minutes they start bad mouthing this site. Aidpage works because the people that come here everyday and contribute whatever they can do care a lot about others. This is not a page you stay with because of the money, you stay here because you care and usually all of us are hurting as bad as everyone else. sheshe030

Amen.

ekikaseven, I so agree with you.  This site has a lot of information for people who are willing to look.  None of us on here are millionaires, we are all in the same boat, rowing up the same river that is going the opposite of our paddles.

In order for things to change, a person has to create the change, either by changing their attitude or deciding to take control of their life and find the resources that will help them do that.  Unfortunately, for anyone on here.... no one is going to place the green money in your hands or for that matter in your paypal account.

Do some searching on aidpage, check out some of the blogs on here, heck, check out mine at:

http://friendshelpingfriends.aidpage.com

There is resource after resource to help you.  If you feel you are not getting any help.... then maybe standing on a corner with your tin cup might be the answer.
