I want to save my home

Dear people,

I am about to tell you a story about my real life. I was just a kid that had big dreams of running a family business with my mother, who worked hard for our normal lives for long, long years. Unexpectedly, my parents got divorce when I was nine years old and my life changed drastically. As for my father, he is a person with disability and difficult illness. When I was little, my parents gave me the most beautiful childhood I could possibly ask for, so all that I want to achieve now is to give them a chance of a beautiful and quality life, so that for once in their lives they get to live freely and happily. Back then, as soon as there was a chance, my mother planned to open her own Spa and motel resort. Our country promised us a bright future when in reality, they just wanted to take money for themselves and make us miserable. Because my mother trusted the wrong people, we took a loan we could not actually pay back. We were taken advantage of and at that time, we did not even knew it. Like I said, back then, I was just a kid and I could not help my mother with the financial struggles in the year 2013. Eight years have passed since we were supposed to get the promised money from our country and we still did not get it. Everything would be just fine and I would gladly pay off my mother’s debt, but I did not even get that chance. At that time, no work that I did could save me from the reality and I was trying for a long time. I did not want to ask for anyone’s help, because it was embarrassing and shameful, but I think that now this is the only chance that I still have. My house, my only home was shamelessly taken away from me and there was nothing I did wrong in the first place. From this day on, I have only 3 months left to buy my “home” back. I know that people in the world have bigger problems than losing their houses, but for me, this is unimaginable situation. This house was my home since forever and all the happy childhood memories and dreams are stored in there. This was my home since I can remember and this is where I wanted to spend the rest of my life. This was my dream. I am working as much as I am capable of but I am still not able to pay of that debt in such a short period. The time is something that I cannot buy and it is like a nightmare from which I cannot wake up. I am not a poor person, I have food, job and people who love me, but without the roof over my head, I think that life will become unimaginable.

I understand that some people might ask themselves why I want to keep this particular house so badly in the first place. It is because my father gave all of his health, blood, sweat and tears into building this “home”. I do not want to give up on the house that my father built with his own hands, when he still had some strength left just before his illness worsened a lot. I know that my parents gave everything into building this house and that is why it is so meaningful to me. I do not want to give away the only home I ever knew. Beside that, my house is not only my home but also a safe place for my pets. Some of them were saved and this is the only safe place they know of. We also rescued baby hedgehog who would not survive on his own and now he is hibernation state in his little house that stands on our property. I cannot just let the country take away his little home too.

I always had big dreams of helping animals and people in need and I am sure that I will achieve those goals with my hard and passionate work eventually, but at this moment, I am the one who needs help. I will forever be grateful to anyone who will take time to read my story, for every given advice or cent that could be donated for getting my home back.

I sincerely thank you.
