She came to me this past spring, at my lowest point… Just when I couldn’t sink any further before I could see a way to climb back up. At first, she offered some advice, then decided it wasn’t enough.
Just when things got so bad, she decided that kind words and encouragement weren’t enough. She decided that saying things would be better wasn’t enough if you weren’t willing to help them get better.
She, actually, happened on my original blog the year before, just before New Year, I think. Her advice, then really didn’t hit me like it should have. I was being acted on, I have become really good at this as of late — More on this in a later post.
She is now counted among my dearest friends, since we met earlier this year. She saw past her own situation, stepped out and exposed herself to me. She sent me some money to get me started. It is really hard for me to accept charity, gifts or whatever but she made me an off I couldn’t refuse.
Since this time, we have been there to support each other. Talk each other onto or off the ledge, depending on your point of view. Lately, she has been trying to help me up on the ledge — Eric B. and Rakim plays in background — I need to take a leap of faith… Just don’t think I’m ready, I’m scared. I have been suffering from a massive loss of confidence. I know she has enough for the both of us. I know she realizes I need a bit of easing, I think she is my friend and is willing to work with me.
My gift on this day was one my “Guardian Angel’s,” Vera.
