therealljidol Season 9 Week 3-Another Castle

“What’s that smell?” someone says from the office across from mine. My nose twitches and the rank odor of unwashed clothes and flesh coated with days, or maybe weeks, of sweat and dirt makes its way to my office

Funny to think of him as Sam. Grins. I don't think I've had a single client named Sam so it works. Not enough castles for sure.

As troubled as "Sam" is he's a really likeable guy doncha think?

[imafarmgirl]

Yes, he is, but then most of them are aren't they? Think of our alcoholic who used a wheelchair and how polite he could be. I know you know who I mean.

A well written essay of a really sad situation. I know its just the tip of the iceberg for you.

There are many we just can't help or refuse to accept what little help that is offered. It's very sad. Thanks for reading!

I'm glad there are people like you. Your entry makes me think even more deeply about the problems the homeless face daily.

At least "Sam" knows where to come. Some don't even have that. Thanks for reading! Hugs.

A sad piece about a very big problem in society. Sadly there are many Sams out there.

[baxaphobia]

Yes there are. And sadly many don't have any help.

Poor guy! AW

As much of a dysfunctional guy as he is he's really likeable. I wish we could do more but we just try to keep him as safe as we can.
