Sabas, I try to educate myself, but I just can't wrap my mind around it. I know you have to be careful for many number of reasons.
Thanks for sharing. Keep on keeping on.

I'm sorry to hear all of that, Sabas. I truly wish there was a way we could spirit you and your family out of there to somewhere safe where you could prosper. In the meantime, we'll continue to help as much as we can...

Hadn´t it been for you AGFers, we wouldn´t have been spirited as we are. Believe it, you´ve done so much...

Thanks so much.

Prayers are always welcomed, and do help. Thanks to you and the church group. No problem...

I just wanted to share something about the situation here, since I haven´t done it in a long time, and I know some folks here would like to know.

It could be said that things are less worse i some aspects; at least, there is no shortage of some goods, food being one of the most important.

Believe it, your prayers have helped a lot.

In case anyone is wondering..."I" DELETED 'the report post" message. While it IS true we frown upon political posts the topic was NOT, at least IMO NOT political but rather a history lesson we should all be thankful for and one we should all hope never befalls any of us.

@sabasgr68 is a valued member caught up in an environment not of his making but has decided to try and tough it out in his country UNLIKE so many others and has shared that with all of us over many months. My hat is off to him for that alone.

Think of it this way..."WE" may be his only outlet that helps keep his sanity. "WE" can afford to be compassionate and allow "The Rules" to be bent a tad.

Keep us updated when you can @sabasgr68 ...you and your family as well as all the people of Venezuela are in our prayers.

I didn´t see the "report post" message.

Well, as I said in the first line, I believed I tried to avoid any political reference here, since I understand that it is one of the rules, and I also understand that none of us want to hear anything about it (political) here since it is spread everywhere; this is the quiet place for us.

If anybody think I did it somehow, I apologize, was not my intention, just to share what I´ve seen over the years, all the more since AGF has been so supportive to me and my family.

Thank you so much for the support and your kind words, Patrick @LightWingStudios . I don´t want to annoy anybody here, and, even though I didn´t saw the post, I´m not taking it personal, but just as a "follow the rules, buddy" kind of thing.

That was a fascinating read @sabasgr68. I feel so sheltered, not only because of my bubble world in the US, but also because of my total lack of awareness of what’s going on down there. Wish U lots of good luck, and may connections fall your way.

Thanks for the update @sabasgr68 it was an escalation on the side of things. I thought I started with something very neutral but whatever.
