@mekkaokereke it’s human nature to protect yourself emotionally from the fear that you too could become homeless, and the best way to do that is to invent reasons why a person is homeless. Alcohol. Drugs. Mental illness. The reason doesn’t matter, so long as it can assuage your fears because “that would never happen to you”.
The things we tell ourselves when we’re living paycheque to paycheque and living life on the edge of homelessness.
