One car drove by and threw a cup of pepsi at me with the lid still on it full of ice. I went over and picked it up and it had a hole in it near the bottom ... as the iced cool liquid ran out down my arm I put my lips to the hole to save what was left.

True humility is when you enjoy being humbled ...

I went to sleep at a salvation army drop off station one time, you know a place with a box full of donated items. I went to sleep with my back pack as my pillow. It had everything I owned in it ... when I woke up the back pack was gone.

Starting all over again is a bitch ...
Thats pretty bad. Can't say I've been there myself, and I don't ever want to be in that position. I can say that I've come close - father came in the house one day many years ago and said 'I sold the house. You have 2 weeks to find a place to live' and then proceeded to walk out. I got a dose of reality that day. What may I ask got you into that situation?

Something tells me though that you're one of the few that rebounded back.
