I'm Homeless But I'm Happy

Successful obvious troll is successful and obvious.

This post made me like you. Troll or not, this is the greatest line of truth I've seen in awhile.

Anyway, if you're happy, you're happy. Congrats on finding that. And, if you are a troll, and trolling made you happy... same deal I guess

Good luck

Anyone who needlessly "makes fun" of anyone's lifestyle [barring self-destructive lifestyles , ie: Drugs, Addcitions, sexual immorality] should get a boot to the head. C'mon people.

avoid pastors who preach vague sermons about humanist type topics [man is a "little god", God wants you to be rich, tithing] and live lavish lives whilst everyone else is either struggling or in misery.

But above all else, Live your life through Christ. no one else can sing your song, cook your meal, or think your thoughts for you.

Okay I am not going to sit here and tell you that I agree with this kind of life, but I'm also not going to bash you for it either.

I understand you are a man of humbleness and don't ask for much. There is nothing wrong with that. But I also hope you realize that as a human--Christian or NOT-- are you entitled to have a roof over your head. You need to live in a place that provides safety and warmth for the upcoming winter. You need to live in a way that protects your health and allows others who may come into your life be able to find you and hopefully, help you.

As someone already said, there is nothing wrong with living a nomadic lifestyle, but you still need a shelter of some sort. Even if you don't want to get a trailer, is living in an apartment or renting a room in a house that much? Over where I live, you can get a sublet for cheap or just rent a room in a house for $300-350 if you look wisely. At least, it won't rob you of your money but you will have shelter.

I don't think you seem to understand what others here are trying to get across to you...this isn't just a matter of living in a way that you want, this is about being safe. This is about protecting your health and making sure you continue to lead a life that will allow for that.

When it comes down to it, what your parents think shouldn't matter regardless of the way they cared (or didn't) for you as a child. You're an adult now...I am sure you are well aware of the fact that this is not an optimal lifestyle you are living, and many of our concerns are not unfounded. If you really trust in God, I would urge you to pray about this situation.

You tell us that others' opinions of your lifestyle doesn't matter and has no effect on you... then why are you asking what our opinion is?

I'm sorry, did I fall asleep?

Wow, $1,500 a month with none of it going to rent and utilities? I don't think I even want to know what kind of "fun" you are spending that money on. I currently live on $1,000/month that covers rent for a two bedroom house, utilities, car upkeep, my personal care and the care of two dogs and a cat. An additional $500 a month for fun would be more than enough for me.

I know of a freegan around here who goes to college and doesn't have an established living place, I don't think he even has a car. He's quite a hippy type. He does spend some nights at friends' places and stuff. But it's not because he's trying to save money, it's just how he wants to live.

But the excuse of it takes away too much of the money that you'd rather spend on fun? Sounds like a serious case of peter-pan syndrome. Actually, not too suprising considering the childhood you briefly describe. It could be very helpful to use some of that saved up cash to see a counselor, not for your lifestyle, but for the biterness you have toward your family and your past. It's not healthy to live with all that anger, keeping it bottled up and pretending like it doesn't bother you. It should bother you, not havng something that every living being deserves. If it doesn't bother you, then that's even more reason to seek a counselor.

I know what u are saying by being safe but I have no fear. Fear is a weapon that demonic forces use against people. If I have to be brave and not have a home in order to live happily, then that is what I will do.

Too be honest I think there is more to this story than your telling. Why do you even care what we think about it if your happy? Are you looking for agruement or some way to justify what your doing? I don't understand the intent of the post and what exactly your getting out of it.
