Seattle Stories - Palmer follow up, living in his new home.

- Palmer finally received the keys to his new apartment after being homeless on the streets of Seattle for almost three years. Thanks to the power of crowdfunding, we were able to raise $3,400 to help Palmer turn his new place into a home.
This achievement is a testament to determination and the struggle to secure housing. It was not easy, but Palmer persisted, and his efforts ultimately paid off. He also has a network of people supporting him, advocating for him, and stepping up to help. Others are not so fortunate. Yet, it always takes a community of people willing to help a fellow person succeed.
This is part of his story.

I met Palmer when he came to St. Paul's Episcopal Church in lower Queen Anne. We bonded briefly over being preacher's kids and writers. I'm so happy to see this positive development! I'm grateful to everyone to made this happen for him.

I think you are highly articulate, wise, grateful, creative and authentic. I'm so thrilled that your story popped up on my computer tonight. Just WOW! I'm 72, bi-polar and dissociative, at peace in my quiet haven in Tacoma who wants the best for you! Enjoy pickling if you get around to it!

Stoked for you, Palmer!! Good luck with your new place!! The view of that window is beautiful! Your drawings are awesome and so is your art-decor!! 🩷
So appreciate the calming atmosphere and privacy of our own space, where you get to choose to invite in who you want, or no one. Having that choice is awesome! ❤
Hi Palmer,
I can’t tell you how happy I am that you are finally able to have your own home! It seems like having a Home should be right up there with food and healthcare. Every person needs these things. My hope for you is that you do not stay in that apartment and become kind of cocooned in there. It seems like you have a lot of time on your hands to think, which is good, but sometimes our brains can be our worst enemies. I sure hope you can get out of there and even just get a part-time job where you feel like you have a purpose to get up in the morning and have something to contribute to society each day, or at least Monday through Friday. It doesn’t have to be anything grandiose for right now, maybe some thing just very easy-going and part time. Believe me, you will begin to feel even better about yourself. I’m 63 years old and I have learned that the people who do not have a purpose in their lives for a reason to get up in the morning, can begin to spiral back down again. But the ones who go out there and search for even just a small part-time job very quickly begin to feel better about themselves. We were not created to be alone. I know you probably want to be alone right now for a little while after your experiences, but please don’t let that go on for very long. Get out there and be around other people and pay it forward! You know how much it meant to you when you were on the streets and maybe someone just handed you five bucks and smiled at you and told you to try to have a good day. You know how much that meant to you! Now you could be the person who is helping others even if it’s just a tiny little bit. I think it’s clear that people don’t necessarily need a hand out, they need a hand up and that’s what you’ve received my hand up and you are doing wonderfully with it and I just pray so hard that everything keeps going better and better and better for you!🤗💕
Great news! So happy for your new stability and calm ❤
So little can mean so much.. great to see such awesomeness..❤❤❤.
Love you brother! Good to see your face.
Congratulations Palmer!
Congratulations, Palmer!👏🏼🎊
Where can we listen to Palmers podcast????
This story gives me hope in what sometimes feels like a hopeless world. Extraordinary and wonderful channel, & such a cool, intelligent & articulate guy. If there's an Amazon wish list I'm in.
Happy for you❤
Every place I ever rented my closet was full of camping gear, ready to go...
Congratulations...quite inspirational. Hey...in the last video you used a phrase: "and Bob's your uncle"..... I learned that from an Eastern Canadian friend years ago....but never heard it outside of there. I often tell friends about that saying....cause it's so unique...I was told it stemmed from an old Canadian tv show....and that it means ....essentially.....that's the end of the story. How did you pick that up?
So glad you are safe, from another bipolar person 🍀🏡💕
So very happy for you...
❤
So great!
He seems sane
Hi Palmer, so happy for you. What size of shoe do you wear? I have some divine designer men’s boots and tennis shoes that are like new. I’d love to get them to you. They’re Size 11 and 12
💪🙏
❤❤❤
Think about it! Approximately 50 to 55 people foreign popped out of the directly or indirectly and helping this young man get off the streets and into an apartment. Is there anyone else who's willing to do the same for the homeless people. Just maybe we found a cure. 8:39
If you ever want some good recipes that are easy, I am a person who would love to share with you.
