      Lovelyt I’m sorry to hear of your brother being shot. That’s crazy. I hope he can heal quickly and there’s minimal damage for him.

      First of all, im glad to hear that your brother survived. He must be a strong man. I think that strength probably runs in the family and you too, do have that strength to persevere. It sounds like you have 100 things going through your mind. Try your best to slow your thoughts down and focus on this moment. What choice can you make in this moment…[Read more]

      Lovelyt I hear and feel your pain.
      For me part of gambling was the hope for a better life. Not really realizing I already had a decent life. I had perfectly good intentions. The casinos/gambling institutions have all the people gambling working against each other and we don’t or at least I didn’t acknowledge that. It’s on such a large scale…[Read more]
