Teddy Bear's blog: "Depression"

For Christmas this year, I sponsored a family of a single mother with 6 children and her elderly mother. I made sure they had a full holiday meal with all the trimmings. I got them all gifts and stockings. The children's eyes lit up and their mother cried tears of happiness and hugged me. She said that without me they wouldn't have had anything at all. It was such a wonderful feeling to be able to do such a wonderful thing for someone less fortunate. I even got them all new coats, hats, gloves and boots, including the two adults. But, I let my rent go in order to do this. And 2 nights ago I found a note on my door from my landlord stating that I had until this Friday to come up $1,000.00 or I have to move out on Friday. On top of that, I have no minutes on my cell phone and my phone card costs 45 dollars through straight Talk. So, I can't call anyone for help. I've spent the last 2 days on Facebook talking to friends and family and no one will help me. So, as of Friday, I will be homeless. So I guess this is what happens when you do something that special for someone who really needs it. You give a family a wonderful Christmas they wouldn't have otherwise had and in return, you lose everything...........But, even still, I regret nothing. I'm still proud of what I did and I would do it again.....gladly and proudly!
