I have lived my life in alternating cycles of passion and desperation. A whirling dervish, in a flood of activity, never really going anywhere, though its been an exciting ride for sure. Like doing donuts on the beach late at night.
It is time for me to look at where I can contribute. What do all of my experiences add up to if I cannot gleam from them some learning that positions me to help others? I have had, in the back of my mind, a project I want to pursue. It will require huge amounts of focus, effort, and perseverence.
My Big Dream is to start an organization to help single moms. My plan is to buy a large apartment building where they can live with their children temporarily for a very low rent. I will have on site 24 hour free childcare so that they can take night classes or take an entry level job in a new career without the stress of finding and paying a babysitter. I also want to make free legal advice available as well as career counseling. This is the sort of support system which is needed to help most single moms in transition to get back on their feet and move their lives forward. I know because I have been a single mom.
