I’ve been penniless a few times and on the street, and wondered, “well, what is someone in my position supposed to do? Just die?”
Some people live high on the hog for disabilities as minor as diabetes or high blood pressure. They have apartments, friends, and LOTS of food. Others fall through the cracks.
I know what its like to drink lots of water, eat leafy plants, and shoplift minor food items such as healthy protein bars, canned meat such as sardines pocketed from the store, or eat other people’s leftovers from restaurants before the table is cleared. Eventually, such epochs of time come to an end but times are never good until you have real work and true, independent financial solvency.
Then again, anyone can lose everything.
