My thoughts on from the edge

First let me state that i feel sorry for anyone that is in the position that has no money, and nowhere to go or turn to. I feel that this essay gives the illusion that being homeless is not as bad ass it seems. The author makes it seem like being homeless is a choice of a  lifestyle. Its most unfortunate that people have no opportunities to get them off the streets and have to beg for change just to get by on life. I’m sure that many people in their position try and make the best of it but realize that there is better things out there for themselves. I think that this subject of hunger and homelessness should be portrayed as a much more serious issue than how it was in this essay.
