So you wanna know about little ole' me ?
Since this page isn't about me I'll keep it as short as possible but I'm an oversharer so sorry ahead of time. I am a U.S Army Veteran born in Fort Hood Texas. ( Yes my mother was also in the military ). After my time in the military i started working with animals and even had my own service dog , My Beloved Amor. I fell in love with the idea of saving any animal i came across but realized i had a long way to go to be the person these animals can depend on. My mother has always rasied me with the mindset of paying it forward and having Agape. My Dream is to pass that on to the world with The Agape Foundation.
( Lewis identified unconditional love as agape. This word was borrowed from the Greek word for “charity” or the “love of a parent for a child.” In biblical texts originally written in Greek, the word agape is used to connote any kind of selfless love, whether between human beings - https://brainworldmagazine.com/grasping-for-agape-unconditional-love-and-the-human-mind/ )
I joined the military in hopes to help people. "Protect the World " haha but that's not realistic. So when i got back i had nowhere to go and no value. It was hard to grasp that i wasnt enough to help anyone let alone myself and ended up being amitted* for some time. Due to family reasons* I lived in my car on and off for three years. During that time i tried renting rooms and had to stop due personal safety reasons*, I even signed a lease for a townhouse but it was burnt down while i was at work a few months later. After that the only logic thing i could do was give up. i parked my van behind my job and was content with not trying anymore. Fortunatly the people in my life didnt give up on me and told me to join a group called Columbia Community Care, they ultimately got me a bed in Grassroots Shelter, and Grassroots helped me get my first place of my own that i can call " Home" .
so basically my Dream is to find people that were like me and content with giving up on themselves and remind them that EVERYONE and EVERYTHING deserves a place to call "Home".
A place built on the Apape, formed by the animals and people in my life that have paid it forward .
