RE: Talking to homeless people taught me some very precious life lessons

in #life7 years ago

The most distressing thing is that we collectively as humans and in any society can solve their problems. How can we accept that someone who is as human as we are suffer hunger, bad weather, illness and homelessness. It literally could be any one of us.

On the other side, sometimes I feel they are not as sad as I believe, finally they don’t pay their freedom, ability to choose and time for money. They never compromise who they are for the house, car and the pay check. Which makes their lives more lived than any of us.

Sort:  

Should government help the poor or should we the people help the poor, and better yet, how do we go about helping them, when, how, why, and so on? Great questions. Hire them. Befriend them. Challenge them.

Yes! So true! We all, the government and we as fellow humans, should do anything to help them. Whether it's by bringing them clothes, foods, inviting them to dinner or firing them when we have a business! It's the duty of us all to help each other. Together we can reach and do so much! :)

Absolutely agree in both paragraphs!
It is a shame we don't help them enough so they can get the life they wish and deserve. We all could do so much to make the world a better place for our fellow human beings in need. I just can't understand why people keep on looking away, doing as if it is not their business and even judge them!

But on the other hand, you are so right in what you said: There are also many points which sometimes make a "normal" life so much more sad! Yes, most people in society have a home, a car, all the stuff they need and want and tons of clothes. But they have to sell their souls and lifes to get all that and be able to afford that lifestyle.

Hugs to you my dear :) <3
