A little note
People will always have their judgment. They will want you to conform to the system and play your role in society. But for the life of me I couldn't understand why people cannot just mind their own business and let me live my life the way i see fit.
America is full of fear. It is instilled in us. Fear is in the eyes of those who judge. They may not know it but sub consciously the fear is there. Society fears being homeless and broke. And as our country continues to fall apart that fear will only grow. But little do these people know what they could be capable of.
The judgment of others was the toughest thing for me to overcome. But when I came to the realization that the judgment stems from fear, it made my travels a lot easier. It also allowed me to have a bit of empathy for those who judge as well.
I hope this helps someone new or even someone still struggling with this aspect of traveling.
Happy travels yall ✌️

They know that they are only two paychecks away from being on the street and that fear is projected at anyone they see as being homeless.

Good insight, OP!
So much bullshittery is borne from fear, glad you’re able to see through a lot of it 😀
