27. I think that a better life awaits you - try working to find it

Mar 2013

I can tell from your post that you're a good person, there must be many who love you deeply, who care for you and would have a hole ripped in their heart if you left them.

Life is always difficult, for some of us more than for others - it's a roll of the dice, to some degree. And things are particularly difficult now for so many - these are tough times. Please, please consider working with those who love you, and with those who have wisdom about your troubles, to move things in a better direction. Nothing happens overnight, but things can get better one day at a time.

Peace to you, and good fortune.
