I get that homeless people make people nervous hence I avoid people but actually having lived in barns and the woods most of my life we are home in the woods and bother and sctuslkly protect kids kicked out of their homes

Last night a kid came to me no food or shelter or clothing

I have three dollars for a month of good but we got him something to eat long hesrtvto heart talks supported him

Walking to work and Being a man holding down a job and getting experience passing on what others and nurses taught us

He’s safe at home standing and negoitsing with his parents all he wants is to be independent and start making life decisions they should praise him of course

Anyway yesterday I was walking home from the laundry mat and made a phone call standing outside cvs

Cops roll in and wantvto know why I’m trsssossing

I cooperated and then told them I’d face the judge and tell him

What signs?? There were none

Insecurities are fine but when yur insecurities start causing major violations of my rights

We need a talk

So I have to be arrested or move just because even though I’m

Clean cut

Because I havd s back pack

Ur insecurities come before my rights

I’ll met u half way

But

Get real

People panic over the finest things today

From rediculous standards about personal wt and appearance

To

Omg I might be s cowboy and arrest him he eats meat or what’re er

U have frights

But do do I

Omg haveca mrltdown because he has a military bearing

I do

I was raised thatvway

Didn’t mean I eat people

I’m actually extremely tolerant snd protective

U just assume I’m the boogie man

I get it but

Not hardly

Week people from

Doing stupid things in the woods and freezing to death and far more generous than the holy people

I was once asked if Christ could come back now, what he would look like...he would look like every homeless guy with a sign asking for someone to show kindness. No one would see him, he would be just another one of the invisible people living and surviving everyday on the streets, under over passes, and in church parking lots. This is the true sin...the real neglect...the indifference, lack of empathy, and because so many are desperate to hold onto what little they do have, there seems to be fewer and fewer who have anything to give. I'm sorry Brig...I had at one time in my life been able to try and help where I could...but no longer can where I live, I hope something better comes soon for you and everyone else in your shoes.

Good on you brig57!!! I have a son who was homeless for just a few weeks,( he became aggressive at home ,looooong story,and I have other kids at home so the police made him go ) I barely slept that month ,my heart and soul torn to shreds. Sometimes that's what these kids really need !! Just a person to listen,without an intimidating or dictating lecture,give hope and encouragement ,its a wonderful thing and can get them through. May God bless you!
