Today on the way into work driving down New York Avenue I was struck by a young man sitting under the columns by the old Hecht Warehouse, he clearly homeless but he was sitting there with his hands in his head and I thought wow, I know the position but I wondered when I do that is the same for both of us, did he feel like the whole world was on his shoulders, was he wondering where his next meal might be, was he wondering where his next fix might be, or was he in a fantasy land. I had driven about three blocks in slow moving back to back traffic when I suddenly turned around, I just had to go back and give that guy some money honestly I didn't care what he did with it what pained me was the fact that he was living on the street, and that for any human being has got to be the most unbearable existence to endure. People always tell me when I do stuff like that to be careful, but I have faith that God is with me. So I pulled up by then he had laid down and he had his head covered with a jacket, I blew my horn had to do it three times but he looked up and I called out to him, "here, get something to eat" he came over took the $10, the smallest bill I had and he said thank you and I left. So kudos to Reed Sandridge for what he is doing, and I wish deeply in my heart that all the folks like him are blessed, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow but God is watching. I wish I could take call of all the homeless people in the DC area, get them off the streets a shower, clean clothes, a meal, maybe even a conversation to see what's really going on. People don't chose to become homeless something happened in their lives, lost of job, death in the family, mental illness whatever it is these people are still human beings, when has it become so easy for our society to simply disregard these people? How could the richest country in the world turn a blind eye? Sad, very very sad. So Reed Sandridge, I hope God continues to bless you, with good health and good heart and eventually you will find your place too.
