Whether you are White, Black, Asian, rich or poor there are always opinions made out of ignorance and from that comes fear!
This week I learned that it can come to light just by reading an article.
I never knew the word, Homeless itself would produce fear.
It's sad to think that a person who is homeless is being kept down because of ill conceived impressions that one might have out of ignorance.
Let me say right now that I understand to some degree, because I used to be one of those that kept my distance from the homeless.
It was from ignorance and no other reason.
No person who was homeless has ever done anything wrong to me.
We need to keep from lumping people into a group and thus treating them like a disease and not like a person.
I have met some awesome people who are in a life of transition who I consider my friends.
This would have never happened if I hadn't chosen to learn and grow from my own lack of knowledge.
God has me on a journey to grow and learn from him what it means to love and serve the least of these.
Homeless is not a bad person its a state of transition.
Lesson learned.
