To be on the street is not a reason not to be noble. Have you been? And how many have you seen? How many have transcended themselves suitably?

To live, you need only the basic things. It is the social stigma behind being on the street that pushes us to avoid this situation. I remember one of those moments as the best in my life. I was free and had no obligations to anyone. To this day, I still vividly recall my best night spent on the street. It does happen that some people are genuinely worried about such a way of living, so they offer their help. But nobody likes to be taken as an opportunity for someone else to show charity.

I remember a man. He proposed that we move in with him to his place. He wanted to prove to someone on the phone that he was kind. It was raining that night. Rain is what we hate the most on the street. We all said no, for we knew his intention. In fact, it was a deal, and an unfair one.

People convince us that we need certain things. They do this because they want to sell those things. They convince themselves by convincing us. Leaders are only as strong as the foundations they stand upon.
