Empowerment Center: Loni's Place for Strength and Resilience. Transform Your Life Here In A Positive Way.
Loni's Place Is A Home For Strength And Structured Discipline Without Expectations.
My Family Knows Personally, The Struggles You Are Currently Enduring. We Opened The Center, So No One Has To Face It Alone And Afraid. Or Feel Exposed To Vulnerabilities With No Sign Of Light In Sight, Or Being Lonely In Their Fears Ever Again. Loni And I, Come From A Poor, And Broken Home. My Whole Life Has Been A Struggle. I Have Been Through, And Seen More In My 33 Years. Then Most Are Meant To See, In An Entire Lifetime! Most Of That Being Things I Shouldn't Have, So Loni Can Especially Relate To What I Am About To Say. "I Wan't Retirement Already", Before Life Has Ever Stabilized Steadily For Us/Me, More Times Than I Care To Count, I Had To Pack All I Had, Leaving In A Panic. Unable To Say A Single Word; To Whom, I Worked So Hard Getting To The Current "Friends" Status With! I Have Lost Everyone & Everything More Then ENOUGH. I Need For Things To Become A Little Less Of A Struggle To Survive, A Much FIRMER Planted Foundation. A Healthy Structured Atmosphere, Is A Desirable Way For Most Of Us To Live, I Think! Especially The Ones That Have Never Had It, Within Their Own Personal Home Experience. I Am So Thankful Life's 1st Lesson Was, "Life Is Not Fair". If It Hadn't Been, I Know I Would Have Shattered To Un-Repairable Measures By Now! Not Only Do I Want To Help Others, Live Their Best Life. I ASPIRE TO MAKE SIMPLE FUNCTIONS OF DAILY LIFE EASIER FOR ALL WHO STRUGGLE THE SAME WAYS I DO. It Makes Me Sad To Say That Generational Curses Are Real. I Pray My Experiences Have Broken This Family's Cycle. I Hope It Stops With Me. If Me Being The Last One To Face Coping With The Failures Within Themselves, Like I Am Resenting Myself For Losing The Only Purpose I Have Here, Absolutely I'd Do It, Instantly. IF IT WAS A CERTAINTY OF THAT.
I WOULD BE PROUD TO SAY, I ENDURED THESE TROUBLES. ALL FOR THE FUTURE US, AND I LEARNED THROUGH NIGHTS OF EXSCRUTIATINGLY ENDLESS PAIN, THAT IT WAS MY PUNISHMENT AND I WOULD HAVE MY BABIES BACK WITH ME, WHEN IT WAS ALL OVER FOR THE WIN OF OUR "UNITY IN THE END". ABSOLUTELY I COULD DO IT.
SO THAT IS WHAT I TELL MYSELF!
Praying My Future Family Live Free From ADDICTIONS, PAIN, SORROW. ANGER OR ANY UNSUCCESSFUL VENTURES THAT MAY BRING THEM FUTURE FAILURES, Like I Still Suffer With Today. I Hope That They Don't Ever Know My Experiences PERSONALLY. Or Any Of These Terrible Thoughts I Still Have Daily ABOUT MY OLD SELF.
My Sister Loni Has 6 Children, Out Of Whom, Only 1, Will Remember Who She Was, What She Was About, BY PERSONAL MEMORIES.
So This Is My Attempt To Make A Legacy Her Kids Can Be Proud Of.
One That Lives ON INFINITELY THROUGH THE WALLS OF EVERY LONI'S PLACE. I Want One In More Than Just This City, More Then Just This State, I WANT ONE IN THE CAPITAL OF EVERY NATION. This Is My Effort To End Homelessness FOR GOOD. NOBODY SHOULD BE WITHOUT THEIR SAFE & SAME BED EVERY SINGLE NIGHT. I Can Take Honor In Knowing I Made The Lives Of A Few, A Lot Easier To Live, For all the misguided ones. I want to show their is other ways of doing things.
RESTORING FAITH AND HOPE AGAIN THROUGH OUR LOVE FOR THE LORD AND HIS ABIILITY TO LIGHT EACH OF OUR WAYS.
