How different the world was back then! <br /><br />I guess you have always had a big heart, filled with love for others. No different today, only now you lavish all that love on your family, Karma, and your fortunate blogging buddies. :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-64052364549973309632012-04-10T06:05:39.693-05:002012-04-10T06:05:39.693-05:00Actually ~ I think this has the makings of a poten...Actually ~ I think this has the makings of a potential novel ~ Wow ~ brave little girls ~ You flew home ~ what happened to all your stuff?

I lived in australia. My family and I travelled the coast in a caravan for a year, looking for a better, alternate way of life.

I had to laugh at Anita; I didn't realize what her profession was until I caught on why she was waiting for vehicles all the time, LOL :)<br /><br />Sounds like a wild adventure you guys all had; ever keep up with the other three since that time?<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-592474586210856272012-04-09T22:18:10.873-05:002012-04-09T22:18:10.873-05:00Oh sweetie, I was there with you!

I'm new to your blog and enjoying it, this and the previous post of Alice Herz Sommer.<br />In shared digs I had, at the time in history you described, a near-nude woman was always visiting me. I just thought it was the freedom of the times, and no need to to embarrassed, we were both women after all. Turns out she was trying to estabish a much more intimate relationship and I was too naive to be picking up the hints. I enjoyed this look back in time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-88368255857021803952012-04-09T21:52:34.865-05:002012-04-09T21:52:34.865-05:00way back in college I did a research on hookers an...way back in college I did a research on hookers and I found that they were low paid workers. most of the time abused and mistreated.

Had me "hooked" right from the start. ;) <br /><br />I tend to think along the same line as Furry Bottoms...after finding out the woman was a hooker, you still loved her for the person she was on the inside.<br /><br />Hope you had a good day today. *hugs*AliceKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12027650364526343030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29503764.post-25341563572032529072012-04-09T15:26:04.294-05:002012-04-09T15:26:04.294-05:00What a great story!

I'm so sorry you had that awful experience and doesn't sound as if anyone helped you get over it. What happened to Anita and her baby?<br /><br />It's kind of sad about the hooker isn't it?
