Speaking What I Know

I simply hate poverty; the sight of poverty is homelessness an impoverished mindset. What if I told you that some people are addicted to homelessness would you believe me? It’s true because some people find comfort in homelessness it sounds insane but it’s true, some people cannot adapt to living outside of a homeless circle. Of course that way of thinking is unstable, however, due to the maintenance of some of the provisional resources homeless addicts tend to feel cared for. It’s a false sense of affection for those who feel unloved by their loved ones, the lack of family support is the cause and homelessness is the effect.

There are many other reasons why people suddenly find themselves homeless, lack of family support is the primary source. We are all human and human nature cries out to be loved and cared for. If those who matter the most to us fail to count us in we feel left out.

People that feel left out usually check out, sometimes out of sanity, society or both. If we kick a dog who loves us that dog will tuck his tail between his legs, drop his head and go away feeling a deep hurt inside. I’m not trying to compare humans to animals, but love is love and hurt is hurt. The truth is there are too many hurting people in this world and some have given up on life because they stopped believing because their lives didn’t give them anything to believe in.

Sure, we could argue that point, but people in this state of mind wouldn’t leave any room for debate, they have started to hate themselves so much that a simple conversation with the voices in their heads could spiral into an argument. Their voices become the company that they keep.

Some can’t seem to digest the reality that they’re facing, so they throw up one that they can. Unfortunately, there are some who don’t know how to live and others who just find it hard to do. It's like a shackle wrapped around the ankle of a baby elephant if we do not believe that we can overcome when we’re weak we’ll never believe it when we are strong. We must continue to try and break the chain regardless the obstacles that we continue to face and face and face. Life is a continuous struggle, I know that to be true, but we must always be prepared for the downfalls, scuffles, bumps, bruises and scrapes even if we have no one to kiss the pain away.
