    None.
    I spend time with up to 36 homeless people - each homeless for different reasons, none of their free will.
    I take fruit along to a Sunday breakfast in Budds Park provided by You Have a Friend.
    I talk with them.
    They have no misconceptions about homelessness: their reality is lived, felt, known in precise factual detail, every day, all day, through all seasons, year after year.

    It's not so bad.

    Lots of us so what's the big deal.

    Tomorrow I'm going to start to get my life together.

    My situation is not my fault.
