Homelessness

A person who is houseless does not have a fixed, regular and adequate nighttime residence. This person may be sleeping on the streets, with friends or family, in cars or abandoned buildings or in shelters. But people who don't have shelter are houseless - not homeless! Homelessness has nothing to do with a lack of shelter. Homelessness is about a lack of connectedness. Belonging somewhere is about belonging with other people. Like belonging to a family or local community. Some people may have no house but they are not homeless. Some other may have more than one house but actually... inside of them, they might be homeless. So who is the poorest? The "Houseless" or the "Homeless"? It's the matter of the heart ... (Inspired by Rebeccas Community in helping houseless people finds hope)
