I know I have helped many people since I’ve come home but please know I couldn’t have done it without the network of people God blessed me with. My mom, my family, my friends present and past- all of you are part of how I became who I am and am becoming who I was meant to be. The good, the bad, those who loved me hated me- abandoned me, denied me, harmed me, or supported me, encouraged me cheered me on- those living and dead. I could not have helped anyone if you didn’t affect me. I do what feels good as that’s what those of you have been my lights in darkness and I refuse to behave in any of the ways that do not feel good to me. I help the way I would want help, I give when I barely have because I see the need and know the joy in having people I can rely on and that believe in me. But half the things I give to help others is information about the part of network that helps restore hope through help and emotional support. I know that my experience in life and with all of you was destined nomatter how we effected each others lives- good, bad or indifferent. I know we were meant to meet. Everything moment every person all a part of why I strive to do good for those who need it the most. Because I needed it most and most of you love me, supported me, and believed in me when I didn’t even deserve it. I was once so broken and weak. And YOU were there for me, You know who you were- you know who you are. And you who love me and cheer me on today, Some of you are role models and mentors you taught me so much to watch you inspires me to believe in me- to dream of what I want and believe I deserve it. To work hard for what I want because when I’m stable everyone I help is stable. And for the team that does the work for our communities in general thank you for being someone I can trust to refer people for help. As I said in the beginning God blessed me with all of you. I count myself lucky because I can truly see the blessings in my whole life in its entirety. The good the bad no matter I am grateful for all my experiences.

It only makes me want to help people more because in my experience I found my purpose.
