I was saddened to read of how some cities are addressing the homeless problem: make it illegal to feed them for free! If there is no food available, then the homeless will leave, goes the prevailing governmental belief. How very short sighted those officials are...

Yes, many homeless are ill, from drugs, alcohol, or mental disease. These individuals need far more than food in their stomachs and often do raise crime rates in the areas in which they live. However, many are singles, couples, and even families who have found themselves behind financially and just cannot seem to get ahead. So many Americans are just a paycheck or two away from joining them. How much savings do you have in your account?

"When I was hungry, you gave me food," claimed Christ, confusing some in His audience. When a man protested that he had never done such a thing, Christ replied that what was done unto the least of them was done to Him. Those who are out there feeding and clothing the homeless should be lauded, not fined or jailed!

Such ludicrousness there is in this world!

NOTE: I discovered something weird, but tasty today. Whole Foods Markets carry something called Skyr.is in the dairy section. It is from Iceland and is actually a form of cheese, although it looks, tastes, and is consumed like yogurt. Skyr is oh so rich and creamy, yet there is not a speck of fat in it. Puzzling, if you ask me, how that could be. The 6 oz. containers have 16 grams of protein to boot. I had the blueberry and am still savoring the experience...wondering how close the nearest Whole Foods Market is to me since the one I ate was a gift from someone.
