Many people have read have your posts and are affected by how you feel.
I don't have much money at all, but I will not be defined as unworthy.
My Mom always said to me, "The evil of today is sufficient thereof."
Take each day at a time, try to be positive.
I burst into tears practically everyday, overcome with worry.
We're ALL in this together. We have to stay strong.
