Dear Friends:
There are a couple of reasons I am not anxious. For one, I have nothing to lose. I don't fear death, and God has already taken almost everything I own. So I have already gone through the process of acceptance: At one time or another I lost my apartment, security, income, possessions, car, my daughter, my granddaughters, and my husband. I might have also lost my mind but the verdict is not in yet on that.
Things got better when I moved into a room at the church with no shower, but I still do not have much left but my faith and my husband's ashes. So the only thing I have lost during this current crisis is the gym where I shower.
For those who are losing things as well as your faith and hope, let me say that the government will indeed help you and this will pass. I studied history in college and I know this for sure. Plus my sponsor Spirit told me.
I do not want to make light of your suffering. I just want to encourage you to look at the big picture. A transformation is taking place. The homeless are getting rooms in hotels. We will have to join forces with others to get through this. I can't list all the changes because I do not know what they are yet, but my experience, over and over again, is that "good comes out of bad," or if you prefer: " When a door shuts a window opens."
Having already had my crisis I am here on the other side to help you in anyway I can with your anxiety and material concerns. All I need from you is a shower if you live in the Bay Area. LOL God bless you all. Reach out. Be patient. Believe that this will get better and do your part.
