I know we all have our struggles

and I honestly have no idea why this suddenly popped into my head but I need to let it out.....
Sometimes we run across people who are facing extremely serious issues and we never know it until they're gone because they put on a brave front and a happy face. So if anybody like that is reading this, just know that you are loved. I love you.

Very kind words. I have my struggles right now, I try to measure them by I still have a home, I have the promise I can give to those I love for at least some time. Lost my job a month and half ago from the company closing where I worked. We had lots of warning, over a year, but sometimes you have to play roulette, should I stay or should I go? A half year of severance pay, and staying until the bitter end played a lot within. It's not turned out the way I thought, but I won't detail as its small amounts that will even out in a year (tax) but introduced you want to make me struggle more?

And I know that is small struggles, as when I go out for a walk or bicycling, I see people homeless with their tents pitched. A community complaining about the pitched tents within the downtown. Yet all social services are located downtown, so those homeless have chosen where help is closest for them

I don't think people realise how fragile life can be at times, or they forget. Now I'm feeling a wealth of sadness, I often deal with depression, and empathetic at times to a point I know can hurt me, I look upon those homeless wondering if that is me?

The world needs more than a helping of love and compassion right now, and those who give this way are seen by me and a gift beyond words.
