A cruel irony in this, but excellently said.
This hits home. Well done, Edward.
So sad, but I am afraid we are going to see more of it.
Very poignant, and a looming truth for many, I fear.
Well written. Indeed.
Hard truth. Makes me angry and sad. Well done.
Well said. I read yesterday that even with an economic stimulus package in this country we won't be able to really help everyone without community service becoming a fixture in everyone's daily life.

[megalo polis megalo eremia~a great city is a great desert..if i remember correctly ie]..many thanks..
Very nicely done, Edward, and so true to life.
Our church houses homeless families for a week at a time in conjucntion with 14 other churches.
Mrs. Jim and I spend one night overnight there with them each time they are our guests.
Most of these are on the way to regaining a real home for the family again. They just need a helping hand along the way.
