I absolutely love my daughter and I was thrilled when she put out this video and I wanted to share it! She's extremely talented in sign language! Music with a message! 🙏 😁

This place is always awesome and they got very helpful people to direct you to what you need they have different departments of items and it's a beautiful area inside as well plenty of room to shop or browse things are reasonable that you need I found some items that I really liked and I appreciate the help directing me to whatever Department I needed to go to! This is an example of some of the stores in Downtown Crossing which are very friendly bostonians out-of-towners or those visiting Massachusetts possibly for the first time in their lives! I'm very proud of this store and their handling of customers like myself! On a scale of 1 to 10 I give them a 50! 🙏🙌😀😁

There's a small City or small-town vibe in this area, away from the train and bus station going up Main Street in Charlestown is definitely a small town closeness feel and the people are very friendly and the 99 restaurant is awesome plus they have the Charleston naval shipyard which has the oldest battleship I believe ever made the Constitution! Which was a paying for the British Navy to sink because it was called Old Ironsides! I took a tour on that ship and it is extremely heavy! And the ones operating it during those years way back in the day must have been sailors under six ft tall because going up or down the steps into another area you would have had to of ducked your head, because if you didn't you were going to get a massive headache or possibly knocked out or a concussion! Because your head would have hit metal! This ship was never sunk ever! And sunk quite a few enemy vessels! The enemy had no answer for Old Ironsides! 🙏

I really understand what the homeless go through in Downtown Crossing in Boston Common and areas around there because I was a homeless person myself and from that experience gave me the ability to look through a homeless person's eyes and see what they go through so I have great compassion on homeless people everywhere many people are genuinely homeless and the thing that bothers me a lot of people will pass them by either scorn them or mock them and not do anything to help them that upsets me greatly because what if the people that do this we're in this particular situation would they want to be scorned or mocked I don't think so if they would once in awhile help people on the streets and I'm talking about the ones that really need the help with a little money or food some kind of encouragement would really make a homeless person's day that would have been good for me when I was homeless in the Frozen cold of Indiana and there was no one around Boston has an incredible amount help places for such as the homeless that Indiana does not have that I have seen Boston hasn't incredible amount of help places for such as the homeless that I have not seen in Indiana I'm not saying Indiana doesn't have them but from what I've seen they don't have too many of them and Anderson Indiana has only got one help place a shelter for the homeless downtown it's my desire every time I'm downtown to hand out what I call snack bags things I prepared for myself to give them including water and it's received with gratitude trust me a lot of them want a hand up because I talked to many of them and got to know them when you been where they are and feel like they felt you're going to understand what it feels like to be in their shoes! 😑😥😔

This Thursday in June they're going to do a CAT scan on me which I'm pretty sure they won't find any cats? 😂 trust me with what I'm about to go through you have to have a sense of humor and I trust my doctor and I trust God that I will get through this upcoming much-needed back surgery my doctor said it's delicate but it's dangerous and I looked at him and said I trust him and I said I trust God will guide you I don't feel it's my time to leave this earth yet I think God still has too many things for me to do trust me with what I am about to go through you have to have a sense of humor! If I didn't have God in my life I wouldn't have this confidence right now that everything's going to be okay! I said goodbye to my karaoke friends for a little while and I hope to be back in join them again after rehab recovery from this,😂 and I trust my doctor and I trust God that I will get through this upcoming much needed upcoming back surgery, the plus side is my doctor told me that this surgery could possibly take care of the pain I feel down the right side of my leg because of the pain I have in the lower right side of my back so there is a plus to this, the other plus side is God will be watching me all the way through the surgery and I have confidence I will come out of this even better than I was before, because if I don't have the surgery the disc that were injured from an injury in 2017 in Boston will get worse and I will probably end up in a wheelchair and I don't say this against wheelchair people I understand but I really truly want to stay upright as a healthy individual possibly do better things without the limp that I obtained from knee surgery from that same accident that never got better, and my hope is that this back surgery not only takes care of the back and the pain going down the right side of the leg but hopefully be able to closely walk normal again, a lot of my friends and case managers are pulling for me to come out of this even better than before so please keep me in your thoughts and if you pray, I would truly appreciate that! I trust my doctor and I trust my God! Tomorrow I find out from the same doctor how soon does surgery is going to be I'm thankful for that God bless you all and be safe in Jesus name amen... 😊☺😄
