Hello to everyone. I’m sending this out because, I’m sitting in a friend’s car at the public library, and in my view is a tree that a friend committed suicide by hanging himself last summer while I was away from Redding. The news of his suicide came as a great shock to me! And there is a good news rescue mission just four blocks away! I was told, no one saw it coming. I’m sad, and mad because he slipped through the…. and he died as a result of neglect, lack of love, I think! I know the data is dated, 2015, and I will look for more current data for this.

I’m glad to be somewhat able to write about what is on my mind and heart most of the time thanks to Wordpress. I’m a 60 year old man who is a widower twice. And I took care of my dear mother the last five years of her life with us, and buried her in 13. I’ve been homeless for the last seven years since my last wife passed away in 12. Rest In Peace ladies! I’ve started this blog for expressing my thoughts, and feelings about what I see, and experience not only as a homeless person, and yet, as a follower of the Way! There are 197 verses in scripture that speak of how the poor are to be treated, and from what I have seen! (you shall know them by their fruits.) I am sorely disappointed! And, honestly... I think God is too! So, please bear with me as I attempt to make some sense out of this mess? Just know I’m crazy about this topic, along with a couple of others! Have a great day, and thank you for stopping by to see what this crazy old man is yelling about today. View all posts by anonymous~
