The story

I am a wonderful woman that loves everyone and loves to help others who I care about, but not too much care for me. But I put it on God's hands. And I look down on them. Cuz I still love them and everyone else. I want everyone in the world to take care of themselves and love those people. Cuz we are still the same show us love always. The same way. I will love you. Don't treat me different cuz I won't hurt you. Just love you. Make sure you're safe if you do anything. Safe sex--don't want to hurt anyone.
