Life has been crazy.
Living, breathing, and learning is what I have been doing.
I recently got a job.
My first day was the scariest thing I have ever experienced.
By the time I was in my car to go home I thought about quitting just because how nervous and scared it made me.
Honestly though, I am really blessed. I have amazing coworkers and boss' and the pay is good.
It's like a family environment. And I had a moment.
An instant in time when I realized that this job was perfect for me and that God gave it to me for a reason.
I was helping an older lady. It was decided that she didn't want to buy anything.
But she started telling me about herself.
She is like 71 and she rides her bike to work every day and she was going to do a marathon and go out of the country next month... she was telling me all of this stuff and I was absolutely delighted to listen. I told her that she looked maybe 50. She pulled me close and gave me a huge hug.
Made. My. Day.
Seeing the smile on her face just showed me that in that very moment, listening to her stories, encouraging her, and hugging her was where I needed to be in that very moment.
I realized I stopped living.
I let the world and life spin around me.
And now I see I need to move.
I need action.
I need to be there not only for myself but for strangers.
Like a seed I am growing.
My heart is learning.
And sometimes I need to see and feel my hearts reflection.
There is a lot to say.
And a lot of things I want to share.
Stories of things that bring a lump to my throat and tears to my eyes.
Stories of people I have been meeting.
Stories of stories that have impacted my life.
But time is short.
And my eyes are growing tired.
How are you guys?
I hope all is well.
Have a good night :)

This is very personal that I felt guided to share as a message of forgiveness, faith, hope and healing in these troubling times that we are living in:
I nearly died from the physical abuse and violence I received as a child. As a teenager, I attempted suicide more than once, again Angels watched over me. Sometimes, life hands us lemons and I was taught how to make the best damn lemonade I could. I have no regrets about anything. If I had my life to live over, I would not change anything. Everything that has happened to me, happened for a reason,even though it took years for me to begin to understand it. It has helped to shape and mold me into the person that I AM. Because of my life experiences, it has given me strength and courage, hope and faith. I have been guided in touching many peoples lives in so many ways. I have helped in preventing suicides, gave comfort to those dying, encouragement and hope to those who want to live, inspiration to some, to be all that they can be. What more can I ask for !!!!!
With faith, all things are possible....................................................................
I remember this song from childhood and often sing it:

Hello, I´m Miss Monday, Yopper has been kidnaped, If you want to see him again, you´ll have to....
Ahhh, ahhh, help, help, Miss Monday has kidnapped me... I have stolen the pen and I don?t know how long I´ll be writing, I have to write very very fast. I was playing with Miss Sunday, we were very happy with the PlayStation and when I was coming home, at 11.59 P.M., Miss Monday and her terrible friend Miss Vaseline caught me. I tried to escape, but Miss Vaseline was sitting on me.
I don?t know where I´m, it?s wet and smells like used diaper. Please, help me, I´m too young to die, I have to do many things: Go to Disneyland, think about new accessories for your Yopper Vibrating Doll, find a bride, be rich....
If you don?t help me, Miss Monday will force me to watch all Falcon Crest episodes. Yes, all all all 9 seasons tirelessly. It?s very hard, because she has said me the end. OMG, I need you... I?m scared, Miss Vaseline has a XXXXXXL strap-on and looks at me with naughty eyes.
If you could call to the ONU, NATO, Superman, Batman, Bob Sponge.... I´d be very grateful...
Ahhhh, sorry, Miss Monday has discovered me. Ahhh, ahhh, please Miss Monday, don?t turn on the TV. Ahhh, I´ll be good... OMG, Angela Channing is here again...!!!!
