Born in Boulder, Colorado, from a middle class family, I never thought about being homeless as a possibility. Not until it became my reality following a couple of life altering events. Life can be amazing, beautiful , inspiring. Life can also be unpredictable, disastrous and soul crushing.
I guess I had my prejudices towards the homeless community as a whole, and honestly not that much has changed. I still can’t stand thieves, littering/ trashing, begging. They may not be the majority but there are some good people facing homelessness as well, be it their own decisions or something else.

The point is there are a lot of things we just don’t fully understand or account for. As for my wife and I? We will persevere, we will recover. Thanks to the generosity of good people like yourselves.
