I would love everyone to read this. but this is mainly for those who have asked or are thinking about asking for free disneyland tickets. so you are a college student or a part time employee that is on a limited budget. consider this. I am disabled and not able to work even though I miss my job and want to go back. but I can not work. I am fighting to get on social security. they have denied me twice and I have a lawyer. I have NO income. my husband works his booty off to try to support us. some weeks he gets 40+ hours. other weeks he gets 0 hours. we live with my parents. my parents are both disabled. my mom just got a denial letter from social security and has no income. my dad got approved for social security but they are telling him the $1400 a month he is supposed to get will now be $350.
im not posting this to get sympathy or free stuff. I have never asked for free tix. on the contrary we had passes for two tears and will be getting them again. its my release from stress to go to disneyland. even thought we technically cant afford it we still go. I want you to understand that there are so many people that "deserve" tix more than you. and im not saying its me. if I could I would take a motel kid every time we went. simply because I was a motel kid when I was little. I understand how it is to not know where our next meal is coming from. or to have to make top ramen in the coffee maker. so please before you ask for something just think. your life could be worse. I am so happy spencer and I can do disneyland and wish we could take so many others with us. but we sadly can not. there are so many so much more deserving than us. and I pray everyone can go at least once. just thank god you can go to college or that you have a job. because millions if people do not have that privilege. thank you for listening.

Awe thanks! Lol but seriously the acting crazy thing takes my mind off the stress in my life. That's why I also love disney. Disney relieves my stress. And I love it so much! We can not wait to get our passes back! Its been 1 1/2 months and that is too long! - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 9:00PM
And thank you for taking your time to read this :) love you sos! - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 9:03PM
Lol, yeah, DL is a "bubble" from the real world. For me, Hawaii is, also. I haven't been able to go in 6 years and I really miss it. But, we all have to sacrifice! And those absences make returning to our "laughing places" much more special :) - Spoonful_O_Sugar 436.2 #285 9:08PM
Never been to Hawaii. Would love to go someday. I hope you make it back soon. - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 9:14PM
You'll get there someday :). And I'll get back someday. We're both very fortunate to have the things we do, though! - Spoonful_O_Sugar 436.2 #285 9:37PM
This is so true. We are blessed to have our passes. I am so glad that we have the option of the monthly payments - Veronica21

If it wasn't for the monthly payments spencer and I would have never been able to have passes. $70 a month for two passes is much easier than $1000 down for two passes. - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 9:34PM
Yes I know I like paying $55 a month, I know how much I can spend - Veronica21 167.9 #2035 9:41PM
This is so well said! - Autoalice

I'm sorry to hear what you and your family are going through, but thank you for sharing... Unfortunately, we all need a reminder... Keep your head up... ;-) - disneymomma1

Thank you. I always try to stay positive in everything. (Which is hard) but I need to be for my parents. My mom is very depressed getting denied (she was on SSA 15 years before) but I told her its what they do. All it was is a form letter. It said the same thing word for word that my first denial said. So I try to keep positive for her mainly. She will be getting a lawyer as well.
will get better its just hard right now - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 9:44PM
This is such a get message of how ungrateful most Americans are. We have all of these " first world problems", oh my iPhone/iPad doesn't work but some people even in America just want running water or a hot meal. Thank you for bring us back down to earth. - PrincessTianaCM

I ssee so many complaints and things on MW as well as some other forums. And o think "really?" The other say on the build a bear FB someone was complaining that their pamphlet said something was coming out on the 12th but their FB said the 11th. Seriously its one day person. If that's all people are complaining about they need to live one day in someone elses life. It is easy to forget others when your life is going well. That's why I wanted to post this. - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 9:49PM
Hang in there. Hope to see you and Spencer soon. ((((hugs)))) - PrincessDuckie

Thanks Tuckie! We need to hang out again. - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 9:50PM
Thank you ImAlwaysCrazy. This was very well and nicely written. People need to realize for the most part life could always be worse. It upsets me when others just want want want but don't want to work for it or are always complaining. I have always enjoyed your posts. You have a great outlook on life. I hope that everything starts getting better for you and your family. You are in my thoughts and prayers. - sewgirl

thanks boo! I dont normally talk about my home life. Because I am so blessed with a loving husband wonderful awesome parents. An awesome sister that is sadly moving away :( and a few good friends. I also enjoy coming here and seeing my MW friends. And I understand some people on here dont care about what health issues or financial issues you havw - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 9:58PM
But I always try to post about something like this when it needs application in a matter. Earlier someone said they deserved free tix because they were college student. But even being a college student you can still work. 3 out if 4 people in my house cant work. And even being in the situation we are in there is someone else out there worse off. Keeping that in mind gets me through alot and o pray for those that are worse off. And I wish I could help them all. - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 10:01PM
Yah but see even though you and your family are going through so much you always bring a positive additive and warm spirit. I'll be having you all in my blessings, prayers and wishes:) - BooEve123 800.3 #115 10:02PM
Thank you so.much Boo :) I hope to meet you soon! - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 10:28PM

Amen sister! Sorry to hear that you're having tough times but I love that you make the best of it! Praying you get through it soon and everything turns out good for you and your family. Kudos to spencer for being so strong for you! - RickeyCalifornia

Thanks rickey! I admire you for everything you have done for your cousins 6 kids. Your family has done so much for them. You are a truly good person. - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 11:39AM
That is very well written. Keep smiling, I hope everything works out for you and your family!!! - Nicholas-M

thanks Nicholas. I know thing will work out eventually. That's why I keep positive. But I just hope others can be as positive when things get them down and life turns the way they dont want it to. I will always keep smiling! - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 11:41AM
Very nicely written 👏
There are so many people who feel they "deserve" this or that. I have found that if you are a good, kind-hearted soul, things always come your way. It's very sad that many today feel such a huge sense of entitlement. Instead of asking for this or that... Try genuinely giving more than you ever have in your life...the rewards are amazing!!! - 2BeignetOrNot2Beignet

Exactally! That's why I love doing RAKs! It makes me happy to give. My parents taught me values and morals. Sadly that is going the way of the 8-trak and vhs. I would rather give up a seat to an elderly person or something to someone who truly deserves it. But many have a dont care its all about me attitude. Which is really sad. - ImAlwaysCrazy 646.4 #166 11:56AM
