      Today has been an interesting day so far.....

      I went to a group that fed the homeless people today. There must have been 300 + homeless/less fortunate people that had no food or clothing. I donated tons of water, a good amount of canned foods and I gave some stuff. Most importantly i gave empathy and compassion for those suffering individual.

      You are going to say...what does this have to do with with tinnitus? I will tell you right now. There were 300+ homeless people and probably 50-100 volunteer and all were crammed into a space no more than 1000 or less sq feet. It was very loud in there and my tinnitus was louder than the loud noise. It was kinda hard to stay in there and most people would have probably ran out of there. My tinnitus is very LOUD and very HIGH pitched and understanding people was kinda hard.

      All in all, i said...the hell with my tinnitus, look at these poor homeless people that society has given up on and they probably given up on themselves as well.

      I talked to quite a few today and it felt rewarding to love someone else, when we ourselves suffer from this horror. TRUST me, my tinnitus is brutal and its pure agony.

      I still loved and cared for those people today and I hope my message reaches someone and hopefully they will give back to those that might be less fortunate :)

      We have it hard, but someone else might have it harder...never forget that...

      Be well.....

      And there's a good chance some of those homeless have tinnitus, especially if any are military veterans.

      I like making a difference in this world. Even if you can make a difference for one person, that is an amazing accomplishment :)

      People will always remember how you made them feel, they never forget.
