Between a rock and a hard place.

Now I Know most don't know me, but I have been having a lot of sleepless nights and I figured this be a good way to blow off some steam.

I've always been a firm believer in that if you are a good person good things will happen. Now there has been times where things have happend that had me question that belief, but the situation always found a solution. A few days ago I learned that someone I care about is about to lose everything and it's really fucking with my head. Some of you may know this person so for Privacy issues I shall call her marie.

Marie has been a great person to everyone see has met and would always put everyone before herself. She has made a few mistakes in life, but who hasn't? Those of you who know this person know that she is very carring and loving person. This wonderful person made one bad move and now the world is falling all around her and the worst part about it is that I am in no shape to help her out as much as I want too. She lost her mother about 6 years ago and ever since then nothing has ever truly gone right for her.

One of the hardest things about all this is the fact that she is a mother and this might mean she may lose her kids. This is something I don't wanna see happen I will do my best to prevent, but what scares me is that I don't think I can do much at this point in time. The world revolves around money and right now she nore I have that. I been looking for another job in hopes that I will get one and do my best to help her, but that option will take time so now Im stuck hoping and praying for a miricle right now cause god knows she needs it.

Its takin everything in me not to totaly lose it I know if I do I am no use to her. I wonder why god lets the bad things happen to good people. I'd suffer through hell just so she wouldn't have to suffer anymore.

I needed to get this off my chest don't feel better but I am glad I got it off my chest.... and now off to find the miricle. :verysad:

what ive learned is that every hard time is a test with a reason, and the reason is never obvious until after the test has been done and past.
As recent as this past week i myself had a single rough night where i cursed god for letting me have a single great night, followed by the single worst night i had ever had...only for days later to be recovering from my breakdown and suddenly have an epiphany as to why what happened did, it was something i would have never seen had the bad stuff not happened...and then it all made sense and i apologized to god and thanked him.
Its rough when your going through it and you just don't know where your gonna be minutes from now, let alone days and weeks.
But in the end there will always be a light at the end of that tunnel and you will both go on living and looking back on what made you stronger.
one plus in this situation for you that i can see is no matter what happens, the way you fight for her will make your bond stronger with each other. You may not be able to do much at this point in time, but a small action covers a larger action. Just because it seems small, something like being there for emotional support and offering your attention, is actually much bigger than it seems.
The good things will come, when the bad things fade away. but until then...good luck brother, stay strong, keep her strong.

Looks like Im about to lose contact with her aswell, Its hard not being able to help, but its even harder not knowing what happens.

All this sux really, but there isnt much you can do. This is HER problem and more than likely only SHE can fix it. The storms life throws at us are what help us build character. You ask why God allows bad stuff to happen to good people? No, that is not the case. Its when bad stuff happens that God is with someone the most, preventing you from making a dumb mistake as a result of the negativity around them. Im not saying your friend is a bad person, but maybe as a result of the bad decisions you mentioned is the reason why this stuff is happening to her right now. All you can do is be as supportive as possible and accept the decisions she makes.

One bad move could cause her world to fall apart and might mean her losing her kids?

It started a chain of events that lead up to this. What she did wasn't bad at all just wasn't the best choice. I got her cell phone back up so now I know shes alive. Still hoping for the miracle lol.

To make such a mistake that would actually potentially snowball to such an escalated point raises a firm question that I'm positively certain Mire was implying to... why would she do this? You speak to the woman's moral character to such a high degree, but a woman who makes decisions without putting her children's well-being first raises a fuzzy eye, or even a few.

Granted, the situation mentioned hasn't actually been listed, but I find it extremely hard to believe you know enough about this woman given what you've told us and the extreme amount of sentiment shown to really satisfactorally justify wishing for such a miracle.

If it's one thing I've learned, no matter the situation or hardship - and while it may be a general statement it is in fact a profound one - it's that your character, your individual character will shine through and make the situation be what it will be.

If she loses her kids, it's because she lacked the resolve to prevent that. It happens all the time and is a horrifically sad story, but that resolve just was not there in the end.

She does not have my sympathy, but you do. Your vestment in this woman is commendable, even despite the vast lack of knowledge about her I'm sensing from you. You may be undergoing the same financial hardship, or at least one similar, but you're giving someone all of your best wishes. In the end, that is all you will be able to do. It's nice to help once in a while, but don't lose sleep over something you did not do.

I wish I had kinder words, so I do apologize if this upsets you.
