So the homeless guy is at the train station again. This time I spoke to him. Introduced myself as the neighbour, reassured him he is welcome to water, he needs water. Thanked him for watering my plants. Then asked if he needed help, told him about the facilities at the beach, asked if he had family. Offered money. He rejected all help. I told him that we are all part of society and that means caring and accepting help if needed. I can’t help someone if they don’t want help.
He has family , something is up if he doesn’t want them.
he looked so rough, thin, unkempt, full of cuts and bruises, and I think he had pneumonia.
but I think it made him feel a bit better to be treated kindly and with respect
I’ve know a few homesless guys and some of them are straight up unable to function as a regular member of society. Lovely people with good hearts but cannot handle a regular day to day life. Kind of you to reach out to him.
I just found out that an old friend who went homeless died recently at 41. I knew him when he was about 23. Great welder. Tried to sleep with me a few times which was kinda flattering, he was a gentleman about it. RIP Benny.

we used to have a society where there was a place for people who couldn’t cope and village life was simpler too
Amen to that
