RE: Are We Still A Community?
I would rather you do not. I can you assure it will not make me feel better to receive donations from others who need the money as much as I do. I will just end up feeling as though I am responsible for any subsequent hardships they will endure. So I thank you, but if you are struggling, take care of yourself first before helping anyone else.
this is how I look at it: we all struggle but we all also have some extra we spend that wouldn't notice. If when one of us was in need we all threw that extra for a day or so then it would more than cover the need- creating a positive difference out of a non perceptible negative. Trust me I would have sent more if I could have, and I normally am a bit of a bleeding heart, but i sent just a couple which i would not notice in any capacity and I have had plenty of help lately (I would be homeless and probably worse if I hadn't). I wasn't wanting to make you feel bad, I promise you I do know how you feel , I was just prefacing it because my own ego makes me feel bad when I can't help or question my selfishness. ;)
Yes. It's pretty much the song Lean on Me, from back when they used to make music that contained useful life lessons. I even had to listen to that song a couple times before doing this as a convincer. Thanks again.
