Homeless and Tired
There is no hope for many people, no end. It's just one place to the next, the same damn routine every single day. ___
The longer someone sleeps rough, the greater the risk that they will become trapped on the streets and vulnerable to becoming a victim of crime, developing drug or alcohol problems, or experiencing problems with their health.
That is very true. It's a problem that hasn't been tackled with full force. Too many people blame it on laziness without ever taking the time to learn the full story.
Yes, that is true, Andy. But sometimes they gave up on themselves completely and can't fight for their life anymore. We should be more compassionate trying to help homeless people.
Another very powerful photograph with a powerful story.
Very sad. I am surprised that he is out in the open like that. Most homeless people I have seen try to find a quieter place unless they are begging, and this man is not begging.
This is so heartbreaking to see in a civilized city with all those people walking around...

It's true what you say. However that person can lay there and sleep is beyond me. If you are tired, you are tired.
ReplyDelete...sad, the invisible among us.
