Shifting the frame

We all worry constantly about how we will get things done, afford things, organise things. All of this was thrown in the air for me yesterday in Pan Intercultural Arts' "Men Get Creative" working with Male Survivors of Trafficking.

Coming from a simple image making exercise, one participant said "I'm looking forward to Wednesday". When we asked him why this was so important, this young man, with a story of slavery which is unimaginable to most of us, told us that every Wednesday he goes looking for homeless people often near the stations. He talks with them, gives them whatever food , clothing or money he can gather together and just makes their lives that little bit better. "I hate homelessness" says this fantastic guy. So do we all but what are we doing about it? What are the decision makers doing about it?

Inspiring and humbling.
