i will only write about this once.
i know a story. it is a true story. it is about a young woman, a loving wife and mother. it is about her little family.
they need help and have, humbly, humiliatingly, turned to social media. it is a place called "go fund me." people use this for things like help for bills to, one i saw wanted $5000 to decorate her yard with rainbows because she is gay and wanted to, well, for want of a better word, annoy her neighbors who had asked her to tone down her public displays of her life choices.
i'm still not sure how to word that as i am not sure what her true goal was but instead of $5000, for the sake of her social cause, she was given over $27,000.
this young woman i am speaking of needs help with bills. she was let go from her job with one day's notice. it was because they could not pay her enough for day care for her son, but wanted her to leave him "somewhere" and come in to the office to work rather than work remote as she had be doing for the last almost two years. {her son is 19 months old.}
unemployment was denied her due to the fact that she did not lie on her application. she told them she was looking for a job that would pay her enough to cover her helping her husband with the household bills PLUS child care. they denied her due to the fact that she could not afford child care without a job.
she is trying to kick start her photography business. it is what she went to school for. it is what she is trained for. it is also where her passion lies. she loves to take photographs. she is wonderful with children and animals. that would be her focus.
her husband works so hard and makes very good money, but it is not enough. they want to buy a little house so that they're house payments are less. that would help greatly. they are working on it.
but until then, they need help with bills. not anything horrible like medical bills. not anything like a social statement of "i am being discriminated against and i want to make a huge statement."
they simply need help like so many others.
for just a little bit.
until things get better for them.
here is the link to their "go fund me" site.
i hope the universe is kind.
i hope someone out there has the ability to help a little bit, or pass this around.
it is usually the random acts of kindness from strangers that make the difference in someone's life.
it did in the Good Samaritan parable.
thank you for listening. thank you so very much for any help you can give this gentle little family.
her husband adores her and knows exactly his good fortune in finding her and in being blessed with their son. she is a lovely person who notices the little details that others miss. her kindness, empathy, and humility are the first things you would notice about her should you ever get the chance to meet her.
any help would be gratefully, prayerfully accepted with joy and good thoughts for the giver.
know that they would, and do even at this difficult time for them, help others all they can.
i wish to thank you, any of the readers of my blog, if you could help.
how do i know this little family?
she is my daughter. that is my grandson. and i would move Heaven and Earth to help them.
if my Dragon was still alive, he would also move Heaven and Earth.
it has been whispered, "i wish he were here so i could ask his advice."
but he is not and we are winging it.
peace to all who read. peace and light to all who grieve.

You know I would, if I could!!!
I can remember a time when I could have.
It tears me up now that I can't.
I can only pray for this lovely little family.
