Thanks to Brie, and her beautiful blog, I am ready to go. Wish me luck. I hope I am not a bore!
-I was up at five thirty this morning to take Gabby to the Room at the Inn. A homeless shelter in Clarksville to make breakfast for the people staying there. It is the second time this month that we have done this. I have to say for me it was better then going to church. To help make one day easier for these people was a great feeling. Gabby's Girl Scout troop did this last winter also but because of the economy being as bad as it is the numbers have doubled. So we volunteer to bring the food and cook it up for them before they have to hit the road at seven. What I learned is, that these homeless people go from one church to another. Every night that it is to cold to sleep on the street. I felt sick. I have never know this life, or really even thought about this life. Being so close to Philly I became immune to the homeless of the city. Just a back ground, a step around the vent to get to the sidewalk. Gabby doesn't get it at all, I guess I can't say anything about that because I just got it. As with most things in my life, "I am just getting it now." I am thankful that I have never had to spend one night on the street. My wish for the world is that everyone would have a home.
