Day 5 Family Promise Banaszak

I love this Winterim class. I love all the people in it, and I love our conversations in class. It's opened my eyes to a whole different way of life. I mean, I knew before what homelessness was and some of the reasons why people were homeless, but I really never went that deep into it. Since even the first day, I've been realizing how lucky I have it, and trying to be thankful for every little good thing that comes my way. Even when I look at homeless people now, it's completely different than before this. Before, I was the kind of person who looked at everyone with a sign on the corner as annoying. But now, I try not to really think anything about them. What I mean by that is I try to see them as "normal" people, because when I see "normal" people on the sidewalk I never really think much of it, and I should do the same of the homeless. This past week has definitely been the highlight of my school year, and I'm so thankful for everything that has happened in it so far.
