In the time that I have been in the shelter, the atmosphere is changing! Our thoughts really do create our reality.. I've got people smiling, and laughing, I am volunteering to make things clean and tidy.. I received an email from the shelter and someone shall be contacting me to talk about some issues... Positive thoughts go a long way, a SMILE goes for MILES! we all deserve respect, and to not be judged, we are all equal!Be good Do good... ------------------ All my love, with all my Heart lotusheartone/Emeraldopal IP: Logged |

Ayelet Indeed! Yesterday afternoon I Was approached by the staff. They wanted to let me know how much they appreciate everything that I'm doing. They've noticed that the atmosphere here has become much more positive and friendly... This is a very difficult way to live! My thoughts continue to create a better reality! IP: Logged |

Laconia bike week ended today, those left there with nowhere to go, were transported to this shelter...the trouble makers from Concord were transported here, the shelter in Nashua was shut down, they were transported here, it's crazy!I had a really crazy day, keeping people from fighting! And the topper, there's a gang that if you stab or shoot a homeless person you get promoted in their ranks..1 stabbing has already happened... Has the world gone nuts!? IP: Logged |

The President of the shelter is suppose to be visiting today!It's a wet shelter, which means... you can be drunk, and you can be totally wasted, and that's okay! They drink right at the shelter. People are shooting up in the bathroom. At this point I am so disgusted with this unsafe situation. There are fights daily! Positive thoughts are keeping me going! Crying cleansed my Soul. ...

As someone who has volunteered to work with the homeless, and even at a homeless shelter, I can (but shouldn't) share outrageous stories of staff and clients alike (and heard of other dysfunctional shelters as well), but yours takes the cake. Speaking of which, the shelter you're at can be shut down should the powers that be choose to do so. Knowingly allowing (and, unfortunately, even if you don't know) illegal drugs and drug use on the property can cause all the property to be seized. (Doesn't mean they will, many law enforcement agencies have interests that are more mercenary rather than in the sake of justice or hindering drug abuse, so probably wouldn't want the headache of even selling off such property that no one else probably wants either). I expect there are other regulations they're also violating in such a case (though if they actually have a sharps container then good on them, I really dislike how the local needle users around here get free needles but don't return them as they should, and see some outrageous places that they leave their used needles behind). Knowing how bad the drunks and such could be, I shudder to think what a shelter like the one you're staying at is like. Are you sure there isn't another shelter you can go to? (Though the best shelters have waiting lists, but they'll usually try to help you get some kind of job, welfare, and/or housing. They usually have much better accommodations as well.) If not, it's probably best to move to another area if you can. Some states can get you a bus ticket elsewhere at no expense to you as long as you either have a job or family on the other end (and no outstanding warrants or court dates, of course). IP: Logged |

It must be a great relief for you, leaving the shelter soon. I hope the board makes changes in the regulation of the place. I'm glad you found where to be! IP: Logged |

I'm still at the shelter...Apparently, this is the worse week to be looking for a place to rent... A smile and positive comment goes a long way in this place.. Some of these people have not often had kindness shone to them .. My thoughts are about finding a home! ! ------------------ All my love, with all my Heart lotusheartone/Emeraldopal IP: Logged |

I have not found a home yet..so, I'm taking a night off at a hotel..I've seen too much death at the shelter.. People de-sensitized to death in front of their eyes.. Just keep eating, while someone is dying near to you... We all need a miracle!

I've decided to spend another night at the hotel...On the brighter side.. I've achieved quite a lot at the shelter... They've taken my suggestions and have even drawn up the the plans for a new dry shelter..there shall be an adjoining court yard to the existing shelter..this shall take 2 years... Everything happens for a reason, knowing with God Source helps me very much... a most magical force of Miracles...

Thanks, Ayelet My apologies for not being around! It's taking a11 of my energy keeping thoughts positive! This homeless issue needs to be addressed by our President. Housing is not affordable, a studio apartment for $950.00! I can't afford that! Something has to be done about affordable housing..In NH our minimum wage is $7.25 an hour, does that make any sense? No wonder the homeless shelter is overloaded!!! ------------------ All my love, with all my Heart lotusheartone/Emeraldopal IP: Logged |

I was thinking about the unemployment rate is at it's lowest...where does this figure come from? It comes from the unemployment office, on how many people are collecting, or not! That leaves a lot out of the figure... People who have not worked in many years, others who are now collecting social security, and so on...It's not accurate to say the unemployment rate is at its lowest, just my thoughts... ..thus far 2019 has been one really difficult year, with so many crazy things happening, and so much death. we are so out of balance, and in need of so many Miracles! Our thoughts are creating our reality, what are you thinking? ------------------ All my love, with all my Heart lotusheartone/Emeraldopal IP: Logged |
