Imagine -- if you can -- being homeless. You've been on the streets for weeks, months, maybe years. Shelter space is limited. The days are brutally hot. The nights are shockingly cold. You are scolded by politicians and pitiless citizens. You are pushed along by Metro, business owners and city marshals. You wonder if this kind of life is even worth living.
Finally, you catch a break.
