Being homeless without any kind of support is a struggle for survival. And if you're lucky enough to make it alright, you can never forget. You don't have dreams anymore. You're alone, and filled with fear. You watch the world but people don't see you anymore... All you can do is hoping for something, and struggle.

The death of my father, when I was 10 years old...

Actually, what kills us makes us dead!

That which doesn't kill us, makes us stronger...

Oh that's what I meant! You got my drift, wise guy.

The struggles I have been going through for some months.

Seeing my dad suffer for years from multiple sclerosis until he died.

The death of my aunt who raised me like a mother.

The loss of my parents and the depression that followed

Lots of courage (and triumph) on this thread. to each of you.

reconciling and seperating my personal faith journey with the burden of being born unto the clergy

scratch that....the hardest thing ever for me is to get past the prison of my own desires and understanding long enough to actually do something great and inspire love in another human being

almost being murdered by my boyfriend @ the time, then going through the court trial.

kimrachell said:

Wow! that happened to my sister...was a horrible experience...she has never been the same.

My sister's funeral...

Slave2daGroove said:

Slave, you're never through it... I lost my dad 30 years ago and while the pain is still there, it lessens every day. However, I doubt it will ever go away. I am not sure I ever want the pain to go away; because with pain, comes memories.

Calling my mom and dad to tell them my brother had died.
Bringing him back to them for the funeral.

This December 1st will be two years for me

Losing a baby, and while in hospital finding out my landlord broke into my flat and evicted me, stealing some of my belongings and dumping the rest in the street..
