    Wednesday, April 2, 2008 | A Venting story

    To my dear friends,
    I realize that my recent actions, have offended some of my friends here on Daily Strength. Though I do appreciate the love and support I have recieved, I have also read some messages that have disturbed me. Even though you may be mad at me, there is no reason to disrespect me or my family. Informing me to get with God or burn in hell or accusing my boyfriend, who has been worki...

    Thursday, May 1, 2008 | A Call For Help story
