The reason I have been absent lately is due to the fact that I have been living on the streets in Brisbane, Australia.
For the last week and a half the only support I can access are through the usual Christian establishments (Since our government has mainly left charity to them) Sure you can get a free meal every day or two, sure you can be assisted with clothing and toiletry's, sure you can be given a room temporarily. But I have found that it is better to take less of the little they provide, and tough it out on the streets until better opportunity's come my way. Why? Because as I have found when interacting with these religious organizations, they never see the need to know me at all.
And how can you help someone the way they need, if you know nothing about them?
