They are missing teeth, they are thin, they are wearing dirt all over them and the worst part of it....the look of a deep sadness in their eyes....that's the one thing that gets me the most. They are as human as you and I....they do not deserve to be judged. I feel like it is my duty (and honor) as another human being to help them. We can't look at them as 'only' the homeless.... they are us, just in a different outer appearance.

Today, that person is homeless - another day, it could be any one of
us. It happens to all different kinds of people, for different reasons.
