As I came across this news article today, I'd been thinking for the last month or two about researching for a better opportunity for the homeless and diseased individuals who need help. A lot of them turn to the Salvation Army, who openly discriminates against homosexual individuals and people that have addictions. These are the two types of people that need the most help, in my opinion. A lot of the LGBT community start out as homeless teenagers that have been shunned and turned away from home and family because of lack of understanding. I've already decided that I'm going to school to be a psychiatrist specifically for teenagers that have issues at home. Adolescents that have trouble identifying themselves. I want to be able to help them. Turn them in the right directions. Encourage them not to give up.
The same goes for those who suffer addictions. Alcoholism, drugs, etc.; even smoking, if they want help quitting. I want to help them see that there really is good in this world still. And I want them to be a part of it. I want them to become educated and happy and live a prosperous life. Stand up to the oppressors and be proud of the strong individual that you've become. We are all alone, therefore, we are all together.
Come to me, I will feed you. If you are cold, I will wrap my arms around you and share my warmth. If you smell, I will give you some soap and show you the warm showers. :)
I've started to learn simple herbal medicine that helps those who are poor and it's really easy to treat things like an earache from being out in the cold too long or a fever that just needs to be medicated and nourished properly. Don't have medical coverage? I'm going to raise money to pay for that stupid hospital bill, just try not to over do it, because money is unfortunately an object and we have your brothers and sisters to take care of too. You're all my children. You're all God's children. He may seem silent, but he speaks through all of us on occasion. You just need to listen.
One Love.
