The gift

I got a gift the other day. Well.....I have yet to actually have it in my hands but its there waiting for me to pick up. It's a backpack. Now, some folks would say, "Big deal Art..a backpack?".  To me its a big deal. It restores my faith in human kindness. Something so simple but to me is BIG. It means i'm one step closer to achieving my dream...my goal..what i MUST do. You see, when a person is in a finacial ditch such as i am even the small gifts (not small to me) in life can be life changing. I realize that i have been asking and asking and probably to some being a pain in the butt, yet i still ask...ask for help.
    I have soooooo many thoughts in my head and to be honest im having a hard time putting them into words here on this blog. A lot of people have questioned me as to why i want to do this long walk. All i can say is, "I just have to!!" I just have to. I feel like there is a big empty void in my life and this will fill it. I wont know until i do it. Also, I will raise money for a charity to be announced.
 So, i ask...can you help me? I need a single man tent. Must be ultra lite as i will be carrying it on my back. A sleeping bag to. Remember, I will be carrying my home on my back and these things to me will be all i have for my journey. It will be MY LIFE. 

                                                   THANKS!!!!
