Some homeless people make choices, and some don't. if you are a single mother and loose your job, there's a great chance you will end up homeless. It isn't a choice. If you are mentally ill, you may not be capable of choosing either. It is wrong to judge based upon our experience only. Life isn't just black and white. I wish it were as simple as that. Compassion and love should extend to those we do not understand. :o) Merry Christmas, and may all beings be blessed.
I think for a lot of us it's hard to see that thin line that brought these people to the edge. It's natural to want to protect what we love and have worked hard for. It's leads us to walk away from people who have lost their way.
But, perhaps love that doesn't exclude these people will keep our hearts and society on the right track. It's a monumental challenge but there's something beautiful in that place.
kinbigbird, I understand you, but not all people can learn to fish, not all are as capable as you. that is why we need a social system that is adequate. I am a social science major, so I can tell you there are things you aren't aware of...thank you for your comments.
People help people,give a man a fish he will eat a meal,Teach a man how to fish you will feed him the rest of his life.Its not the goverments fault its OUR fault this is going on all over the world I have personaly seen this and I have avoided it by my personal decisions Not to do drugs.Go to school.Go to Church and Have faith.Work hard,Not to blame others for the decisions I have made .I have a fishing pole and some line if any one wants it but you will have to cast it into the water yourself.
oh, I am sorry it closed! that makes me very upset. the Bush admin spent most of the budget on war, and now everything is falling apart, and there is so much need, more than ever we need grants and volunteers, just today I spoke to a social worker who told me that terrible things are happening due to the economy, more people are now homeless, unemployed, and going crazy because they are burried in bills. :( I hope you find some other way to help the needy!
this is a Good Video I hope this is "AIR" a lot It is always here NOT IN MY BACK YARD So they push to another area away from the tourist centers I work as A Head Cook of aSoup kitchenfor the homeless / and a USDA food Bank for the low income people but a hurricane damaged the center so the Local Gov was Slow in The Gov Grands and both the owner and I the cook went to the hospital for a few weeks with out us the place just CLOSED

Just a thought or two...

Homeless people made choices too. Stay strong.
