I just saw this article and I know its a bit of a lazy post but guess what I’m lazy. It’s basically about all the hidden homeless people and how because of the economy people are finding themselves homeless.
I might be an optimistic person but I’m not that optimistic about people, people can be horrendous. People are selfish and have no clue how to live.
We claim that this right now, is the peak of human wisdom, we are so damn smart we know everything, people before us were nothing but brutes and fools. All we have is just acquired knowledge not wisdom. Wisdom is being able to apply knowledge effectively.
Do you know that according to the U.N we have enough food on this earth to feed everybody. But yet many die every single day. Because we are greedy, Millions of copies of diet books get sold every year and a child dies because we don’t know how to share. That for me is the saddest thing.
I could go on about the injustice in this world but there isn’t enough paper to write it on. And I know I’ve gone off topic as to what the article talks about but it all leads to the same thing. We are a terrible race and we like to blame others. For God’s sake when will we learn to love.
BRUNSWICK, Maine — The old, run-down trailer in the backcountry near Norridgewock wasn’t much to look at, but it was home.
That was before the landlord died, setting in motion events that left Michelle DeStoop, Bobby Landry and their six children without a place of their own.
After losing their home, they sold their car to a junkyard when they couldn’t afford to have it repaired. Without a car, they couldn’t get around. Low on money, they lost their meager possessions when they couldn’t pay the bill for storage.
Homelessness often means life in soup lines and on city streets, but as a new study commissioned by the state shows, it isn’t confined to cities. It also can be found across rural areas, so concealed that some people are surprised it exists at all, the study finds.
The rest of the article can be found HERE. I highly recommend you read it.
Thanks for taking time out to read this much love.

Sounds to me like you hit a nerve and they are trying to hit back instead of listening to your heart. You are right and I ask the Lord to forgive me even though I will feed them and my fridge is NOT full and we are one of the millions who are about to be or are already homeless. So to they who want to lash out – all you are doing is proving their point that humanity cares less!

May I please ask what you are doing to feed all those who die of hunger? Or are you just pointing fingers? Are you going home to a comfartable bed tonight? A fridge full of food?
