The brakes on my car didn’t work. My car weaved in and out of traffic on the beach. I pinch myself. Is this a dream? The pain hurts. My car goes into to some sort of auto pilot, heads to the curb and stops. The car next to me looked like an old school Rolls Royce. Their window rolls down halfway. I can’t see all the way into the car. Some super mystical things were happening in the background of the car. I can’t really describe it. It was like I had been drugged and couldn’t distinctly see the shapes of the car. I heard a voice and it seemed liked God spoke to me. Saying never doubt me again. I say we’ll if your God what tips do you have for me? The window rolls up, car drives away and I find myself sitting in the car in a random parking lot. The tip I gained is that I must never doubt god again. It feels like I am some sort of mission. I thought about the car accident I was in some years ago and I had to walk with a cane for months. One of my employees called me Moses. That was a great compliment even though they were on some bs. Often times I feel in a similar lifestyle where if I got the story right, Moses gave up the future of a materialistic kingdom to become a slave for his purpose to get the Hebrews to freedom. Who was I suppose to set free? Myself?
McDonald’s breakfast is good for my pockets only. This food can’t be great on my body. I look forward to using a microwave and eating warmed up food. This is one of the privileges of my day. Whoa buddy, I ate some cold chicken broth soup the other day. The gravy clumped together like gelatin and I couldn’t seem to enjoy it. I checked out some online dating websites and seem some interesting characters. I’m slow to meeting people off those sites in real life. One of them things about on line networks, people are allowed to be whoever they make up. I look to present my true self. On one of my profiles I say I am no less a man than MLK, Bruce Springsteen, Obama, Ali. People probably see that as arrogant, but everybody doesn’t see the opportunities of the world like I do. I ate two meals in three hours. I’ve been homeless for nearly a month. I noticed my life shifted toward the necessities. More eating, praying and figuring out where I am going to sleep at night. I don’t have much a problem sleeping in the car except for when it gets cold at night. Them leather seats get cold and drop the temps down even lower. I thought about sleeping in the bus terminal like they do in the movies, but I needed to find a 24 hour wifi where I could come up in life and get some sleep. I found this University cafe that was opened around the clock. I am shocked that people were constantly in here. I wonder what they were working on that prevented them from being at home in their comfortable bed. I noticed one guy that slept in the cafe every night. He kept newspapers scattered around him, but he be totally sleep. Now that I was part of the in-crowd I noticed habits of other homeless people.
