Dear About Time,
Your December, 2024 issue of About Time lived up to a standard of quality journalism second to none.
Thanks to your staff and all who contributed letters, stories, artwork, sound information, legal opinions, humour, therapies to enable transformation and the like.
A wise author, José A. Pagola shared:
“…Our life changes from the bottom up…”
This is my experience.
My bottom: suicide ideation at 45 years old. A chronic alcoholic. Powerless. Broken. Hit bottom.
My “God” worked through caring, broken, healing others like many contributors to About Time, and with my willingness to “grow up”, co-operate with help offered, I am free – even in prison.
This is the continuous “therapy” I receive from those considered on the “bottom.” Never doubt your goodness.
Thank you all, my tears are the melting of my emotional iceberg!
May it continue to melt!
Shalom, David.

I am writing to you about my one and only older sister, Alithea. RIP. It’s been 2 months since I lost you.
