Man vs. Wild -- Day 114 www.homelessrobshome.blogspot.com

This post is a mere snippet from Robert Rashford's video journal that can be found at www.homelessrobshome.blogspot.com. Robert carries his video camera with him as he treks through the hidden trails that lead to his homeless camp on day 114 of his homeless blogging. It a small introspective into the unvarnished reality of one man's homeless plight and struggle to get off the streets of Town N' Country. As you may very well know by now Robert is currently employed and off the streets but his story continues. He has had some recent success but as Robert would say, "I'm not totally out of the woods yet." Homeless recovery isn't completely resolved the first day you start getting a paycheck and a roof over your head. Some of my other homeless clients describe homelessness almost like an addiction or a cycle that has to be broken. When Robert is in the clear he'll be glad he documented his former life out on the street. Every now and again you have to take a quick look back just to see to how far you have come. Keep up the great work Robert, we are all proud of you!
