:60 Is your friend living the homeless life?

There are millions  of working men and women that are living a life on the edge. Many are working and can’t even pay their bills. Some are living right among us and you will never know. And they aren’t holding up a sign that says…”will work for food” or “pray for me I need some liquor.” lol Either way they are well dressed, well groomed and manicured friends and family members that are lining up for a night in the shelter, they are economy hotel hoppers, Airbnb discount finders and some that just plainly live in their cars. Yes, for whatever the matter, and whatever the issue. These individuals are working men and women of society, but just as studies show 90% of Americans are just one check or so from living on the streets. Can you identify a friend or family member that’s homeless but not living under the bridge? Please tell your story in the comments below.

:90 The vultures are out

America as we know it has not been kind to those for which they deem as less than. The stares the poor receive are death defying. It doesn’t matter the story, it all ends the same. Animosity and a glorification of where you are in life, magnified by your own ideals of self-worth and insecruits mirrored by a mask of debt then you have what I like to call a human vulture. A human vulture is someone that would kill a man’s spirit and integrity while he is already down. They will look at someone and because they believe their situation is so much better, they will rip your soul to pieces if they can, just by a dirty, nasty, crazy stare.

:35  Donald Trump  Said What?

More

“Trump could be the most honest president in modern history. When you look at the real barometer of presidential truthfulness, which is promise keeping, he is probably the most honest president in American history. He’s done exactly what he said he would do.” Marc Thiessen, WPost

-Ummm… not so much in my book. But hey, you can take that however you want.

:30 Take Em To Church: The Bible says that a man that does not work, shall not eat. Well many of these hidden homeless do work, their jobs just aren’t working for them. Life gets in the way, and I believe in the scripture. But before you cast judgement on the next homeless man or woman you see, think about your best friend. Think about your brother or sister. Anyone of them can also be homeless. You just don’t know it.
