I hope this is fiction and that you are not really homeless. The title of the book you are reading would have sucked me in to read it too.

Nope. Not fiction. Really homeless at the moment. Have been for a few years.

I am so sorry to hear this Tristan. : ( I just can't imagine what you have been through and I will keep you in my prayers. Please stay safe and warm.

The worst time is when it rains and it has been raining here as of late. I don't have a very good tent so most of my sleeping stuff ends up getting wet. Very tough when one doesn't have friends, acquaintances, nor family to rely on.

I should be alright though. Thanks for you prayers.

Just what you need...lots of rain. I guess that is better than snow? At least you know that the freewrite family is here for you. Please let me know is there is anything I can do for you. Are there others around you that live in tents too so you can look out for each other?

I was homeless for a week in the dead of winter once, but at least I had a car for shelter.

Unless you have friends in LA, CA where I can stay at when it rains, the only other pressing thing would be a feather-down coat (they're light and warm).

When I became homeless this last time, about seven years ago by now, I was in NY while it was winter. I hightailed it out of there really quick.

You might be wondering why I've been out so long. I did have a few places to stay during the first few years, but people tend to disown you once they see you're not willing to work any old job just to have a rough over one's head. And I've got some PTSD and chronic physical pain keeping me from living life.

My focus has been on healing myself. I am working toward earning money, hence writing much more often. Maybe within this year, I'll start teaching yoga. I first must get certified. Next will be Qigong and Taijiquan when my teacher give me permission. So, things are in the works. They just aren't lucrative as of yet.
