Hi, here in Pretoria there are many homeless people. The sleep under blankets on the streets, next to each other so that it is warmer. In the day they try to make money by begging or guarding cars. So when you park your car here to go to a restaurant or something, there is always someone there asking you if they can watch your car.
It seems like the ones who try to do something creative, like make something out of scrap to sell, thrive and rise above their circumstances.
I am lucky, have never been homeless. All the best, what is your plan?
Thanks for your story, brings up a great point. I'm sure there's a great bond of fellowship and a whole community out there that unless you are homeless you'll never know the true sense of probably how strong that group is.
Have you seen that story on Youtube of the man with the golden voice?
Is that the guy that used to hang out by the roads and get cash for saying things because he has such a great talking tone?
Yes, he got a real job eventually.
Yeah, he battled with the fame also and drug and alcohol problems too. I think he's unemployed again now.
