"WE ARE ONE HUMAN BEING SPECIES". Content Warning.
MICROSOFT DESIGNER APP This is not all about me. I author these stories about abuse or other genres to help others see the dilemma of being involved with people. This story and many other stories are authored by me to inform people about these psychological issues of relationships. There are times I use "I" because the story was written from a first-person perspective. "I" does not always mean that it's about me. I am 75 years old. I authored articles that were found that I wrote at 16 and 17. So, IT IS NOT ALL ABOUT ME! FYI! Enjoy all! LOVE, PEACE, UNDERSTANDING.

I went to church one day . Content Warning.
“ I know that many of you here in this room… feel lost … afraid. Feel like you don’t have a place to belong. Like everything you do in life, has no meaning, no reward. That your struggles… don’t make sense. That the world… isn’t good anymore. But I promise you, there is a way. And I will show you that way” when he smiled at the audience I felt like he was smiling at me. As if I was the only person in this room. He’s reached into my soul, pulled out all my fears. "If you feel like your being called to. Raise your hand, and believe." I raise my hand. Because I was home now. I belonged and there was a way for me.
