    Dear Anita,

    Some people know what they want as far as career .Or they had family members who they look up to and they copy all their steps .I just know what I don’t want anymore . I write to you the way I would talk to a therapist or write things in a journal. So I talk about the good the bad and the ugly parts of my story . I have made progress from where I started .

    Dear Hero:

    Knowing what you don’t want any more is… knowing what you want. I am glad you are writing here, talking about “the good the bad and the ugly” (you have a way with words that I like!). You definitely made and are making progress and it is delightful to witness it here, on your thread!

    Dear Hero:

    The origin of “the good, the bad and the ugly”  is in the title of a movie, a spaghetti western film, starring Clint Eastwood. To me, it means all that is real, all that reality is: good, bad, beautiful and ugly. In my reality, Hero is good and beautiful!!!

    A Hero was born October 3, 1990. I remember where I lived at the time (Los Angeles), how I looked (very short, black hair… young), how I felt (quite depressed)… I didn’t know that somewhere else in the U.S., a tiny baby came into the world, crying.. as if she knew that life was going to be difficult. Fast forward, this baby is a 32 year-old Hero who inspires me and I hope, inspires many others who are reading Hero’s words, ever since Jan 13, 2021 (original post): 1 year, 8 months and 20 days ago.

    Thank you for starting your precious thread, Hero, thank you for sharing your story, your life, your courage, your resilience, thank you for making my life better by being my Hero!

    Today is a Special Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Dear Hero:

    why do you think I’m amazing?“- because even though you have had a very difficult life from the very beginning, you are an intelligent, courageous, positive, responsible, resourceful, gracious and honest woman: no “poor me” mentality, no guilt-tripping anyone, no passive-aggressive expressions… and this is very rare!

    You suffered many misfortunes and lost a lot in life: your father to crack addiction and jail most of your childhood (he is currently still in jail, I figure), your mother unexpectedly died in her sleep in 2015,  your first child suffered from severe cerebral palsy for 10 years and died in 2018. When he passed, you lost government financial assistance. With no government assistance, no family, no friends, no man to help you in any way, you worked as a security guard back in early 2021.

    You always looked for a higher paying job and a better life for you and for your second child: you bought fitness equipment, read motivational books, visited (and still visiting) tiny buddha for motivation; you bought a GED book back in early 2021, wanting to earn a high school equivalent diploma so to get a better paying job. You persisted with studying and passing the various tests and in July 27, 2022 (I believe), you earned your GED!

    On July 29, 2022, I wrote to you: “This is why I chose the adjective AmAzInG to describe you: you passed the final section of the Ged in spite of your very painful and difficult childhood and life… you are an inspiration to me!“- I still feel this way, and always will.

    On July 30, you wrote: “I’m excited to be on earth . I feel like I be suffering and struggling All the time.  I guess I make bad decisions, and get bad results… Sometimes I compare my past and future to make sure I’m moving forward. I’m getting evicted BUT I also earned the Ged. So this year was not all bad… I have to try an think positive, or I won’t be able to push through all the mess that gets thrown at me“- here you expressed all that is indeed amazing about you: positive attitude, personal responsibility (“bad decisions.. bad results”), motivation to push through and move forward in spite of difficulties!

    On the same day, July 30,  I wrote to you, for the first time, I believe: “Dear Emily: You are my hero!” On August 27, I addressed you this way: “Dear Emily and Hero!”, and on the same day, August 27, 2022 you closed your post for the first time with “Hero“. Ever since… we both agree that you are Hero!

    Your most recent posts today October 5, 2022: “I feel like a failure sometimes. I don’t like being rejected by apartments. I do my part every day I have a job, my son is healthy and doing well in school“, and ” Well at least I can come here to vent about the things that I don’t enjoy about my struggles. hero“- you are always welcome to come here and vent about the things you don’t enjoy and about your struggles, and… although you feel like a failure sometimes, you are never a failure. You are a success, as far as I am concerned, and I can’t imagine anyone disagreeing with me!
