Reseña del libro "Homelessness in the Christian Life (en Inglés)"
The problem with a life altering experience is that when you go through it, you are in danger of not just losing your possessions that are material, but you can lose many things that you are greater than that. You can lose yourself and all of the mental and emotional parts of yourself. When I lost myself, I lost my drive. My independence, if I really had any, was truly gone. Without what regular people say as basic necessities, I did not want to be anything greater. I got my meals at the shelter and other places and most times, I slept in my car. Many people do not even know about living in a car. It was a minivan. The only thing was, when there was no gas, I slept in it. Also, instead of keeping it in one place and getting it towed, I made sure that I was at 24 hours places like Wal-Mart, Walgreens and CVS.

You may lose your health. You may lose your job. You may lose your place to stay. This world will make people go through hard times. When you go through hard times, you must not lose hope. Even though you go through great and terrible experiences you have to live life and strive to get up from all of the pitfalls and devastating circumstances.

As you go through all it all, God will make you a better person. When I lost mother in 2011, it dramatically changed my entire life. One of the first struggles in my life was cancer.

After enjoying a chance of continuing life after almost experiencing death, my mother was not a fortunate. I lost my mother to breast cancer. The problem with breast cancer is that it can happen without any warning. It is a deadly disease. I loved my mother, just like many people do.
