With the big Christmas celebration over and done with, everyone knows that the season means different things to different people. Without going too deeply into the true meaning of the holiday, I'll touch on an important issue that rings my bell each Christmas season. I'm talking about all the victims out there who are living without a home. As we sit in our nice, warm, cozy house, laughing and carrying on with such joy, you can bet your last doughnut that there is a victim not more than a five minute drive away that doesn't have that opportunity. To the victims out there, it's the same old grind of finding some sort of comfort, many times from a bottle, purchased from money saved back from flying a sign. Not wanting to do the unspeakable thing in that victim's previous days, it is often the only way to get through the terrible misfortune of suffering through another holiday, which is filled with the same misery that is faced every day. It's no different to the victims, it's just another day. As I look back on dark, miserable, lonely days I spent on the streets, I often wonder what I could do to change this. If you have any suggestions, real ones, please post them for others to see. If I witness anyone posting things like, Get a job, or Clean up their act, I will find a way to contact you and you'd better expect a not-so-nice response from me.
Until later,
