I am not an economist or finance guru.....This will not be a blog or a post offering any educational information regarding the economy, politics or the current State of the Union...
But we are a middle class family grieving our tremendous financial losses of the past several years....
And its just not getting any better...
My husband and I are not unemployed but we are small business owners who have managed, by the grace of God, to remain in our home, pay our bills, and watch everything we have worked the last 22 years for, slowly evaporate.
Anyone else looking through similar lenses?
Please don't misunderstand, I am genuinely grateful to still be in my home and put food on the table.
I am not entitled to live in this home or any other. It is not my "right".
I am not drilling for sympathy or a shoulder to cry on....
Its just been exhausting trying to keep our head above water for a long time....
We have made cut backs to every line item in the budget we possibly can, but we just can't seem to reduce the burden....
However.......
We are going to wake up tomorrow and keep trying.....They are going to have to "take us down swinging", I guess......or at least until we just cant invent another option...
This is our home...
Its not a mansion or even a mcmansion...
But its home....
Inside these four walls, we pray for guidance, for endurance, for peace...
We pray that the love of God sustains us, fills us and encourages us to be grateful for our abundance.....
for forgiveness, for love and for health...
May God Bless you and wherever you call home.
