Hi, my name is Rob. My partner and i ( Johanna), have been together now for aproximately 3 years. Johanna is the love of my entire life. I have worked hard my entire life, as a butcher mainly, followed by 2 years as a carer for people less fortunate than myself. Johanna was an excellent wife, mother and grandmother to 2 wonderful children. Johanna , for the best part of 20 years looked after her husband (Chris), who unfortunately in that time was very sick. Johanna was for most of that time his carer, administrator and solid rock for his well being. For the last 2 years of Johanna’s husbands life i was one of his carers, and became quite friendly to him and his family.It is quite the miracle that life has thrown Johanna and myself together in our 60’s, but it is a miracle we live and love every minute of everyday. Johanna and i do not have the sort of retirement fund most people are gifted with. Me especially. We can not go on nice holidays and purchase nice things. But we never complain and get on with life because love to us is worth much more than financial wealth. But as you know it doesn’t hurt to have some finances to make life easier.
Johanna and i have had a dream to help people in need. Being caring in nature we would like to help people sleeping rough on the street, provide meals, and anything else that can make their life bearable. We often talk about a van of some kind that we can make soup out of to feed the hungry, and blankets and street tents to help with shelters for people who sleep rough.
We obviously can not afford a working vehicle of our own and would love to ask for any help with this endevour. We personally think that while most people would see this as fruitless, we believe any help people get is beneficial, at least in making their day a little better. And who knows, right, could lead to them to wanting to improve their lives and take on the same role in helping others also.
On a more personal note i would love to take Johanna on a holiday. She so deserves a nice break from all she has been through. Johanna is a remarkable woman who gives so much of herself to family and friends. It would be lovely for the two of us to holiday somewhere special. If she knew i was asking for help i think i would be in trouble. So at the time of writing this Johanna does not know i am asking for any help.
We both are not the people who normally ask for anything we haven’t wotkeed hard for. But i know now at my age and spiritual belief that asking should not be a burden, but a natural process of allowing good hearted people the opportunity to show their generosity and love. And i will not stand in the way of good people helping.
Thank you.
Rob
