Homeless and alone!

News arrived today that up to 3,000 Polish people are now living on the street in Britain. This is since their country's accession to the European Union. They came searching for work only to find that there was not enough for them all.

What do they do? But turn to crime, drugs and alchololism in an effort to blot out their despair. Of course it is wrong to turn to crime but how desperate must people be in that position and what is the answer? Obviously having a job is the number one answer.

Surely there is work for everyone in the world? Learning new skills opens the doors to many opportunities which are waiting for good people to fill them.

Now that the colder weather will be upon us soon, it is harrowing to think of all the people sleeping in doorways because they have no family or friends to help them out. We, the strangers to these people, are fearful of getting involved and giving someone room in our our homes. We just have to turn on the news to realise what a cruel and violent society we live in.

Being homeless can happen to anyone at any time in their lives. Marriages break down and somethimes one partner will be completely ruthless in wanting absolutely everything out of the marriage leaving the other partner with absolutely zero. Hopefully, the person, who is left with nothing will have the support of their family and friends to help them until they can build their confidence up again and move onto the next chapter of their lives.

If we, who have our own roofs, moan - we should just stop for a moment and give thanks for all that we have and not always want more.

With love to anyone who is suffering today.
