She is smiling and is happy.

“It’s my Birthday!” She sings. Her smile and song are welcoming on a street of thousands of lost souls. “I am happy today. I’m 44 years old”.

“Everyday The Lord Wake me up, I’m doing OK. The Good Lord let me see another birthday. I’ve been out here for 20 years”.

“Make something of yourself” she says to kids…..”Stay in School, as long as you can..don’t use drugs…don’t USE drugs…Don’t use DRUGS”
