I’m sorry you feel this way. There are at least four homeless shelters within five miles of my church.

I’m not understanding why you are putting down the idea of giving back to other people.

Care to explain?

City life is different from country life. The thinking is different maybe because in a city there's easy access to everything.

I don't see where I was putting down helping others. There are no homeless in my area. They couldn't survive here. The roads to go down the mountain are treacherous especially in bad weather. If anything happened to me there would be no one to help me so I must be careful with what I do and when. Thanksgiving would be different if it were in July.

I've tried churches near and far and there was always the same problem. I don't fit in because I am single, have no children and am not a recovering druggy or alcoholic. People think that because I am single I have all the time in the world and everything is easy because I do not have a family to take care of, worry about. I have no right to complain about anything or ask for any help. A person who is single is a threat to marrieds or there must be something wrong with them for being single. Meanwhile I have only me to depend on everything. I used to help people till I was worn out.

That's bath tragic and yet a blessing. I could see why you would be busy and be filled.
