i lived in my car awhile for twelve weeks in nebraska and Santa Fe... was agreat experience even though some days I worried about being harrassed as I slept or that I couldnt afford cigs and gas...

Really really learned a lot in those weeks... the value of hot water... a bathroom or shower... but i never prayed so much or so sincerely... wish i had kept a journal.. spent my time drawing and dreaming and unwinding....

Homelessness is something I also have an interest in... i befriend many of the homeless in my area, in Denver there are estimated to be 10,000 homelss. Some have had this way of life many years and wouldn't trade it for a day job or apartment...

I think it would be important to maintain ties with a link back to mainstream...a helpful relative, a pastor or doctor/therapist... although it is a more carefree way, it was more challenging to reintegrate than i thought it would be...

On the otherhand, it can be somethging like a cleansing of all the "gunk"

Do you think you'd still be able to stop by here?
