Homelessness is defined as living in housing that is below the minimum standard or lacks secure tenure. People can be categorized as homeless if they are: living on the streets (primary homelessness); moving between temporary shelters, including houses of friends, family and emergency accommodation (secondary homelessness); living in private boarding houses without a private bathroom and/or security of tenure (tertiary homelessness). The legal definition of homeless varies from country to country, or among different jurisdictions in the same country or region. According to the UK homelessness charity Crisis, a home is not just a physical space: it also provides roots, identity, security, a sense of belonging and a place of emotional wellbeing. United States government homeless enumeration studies also include people who sleep in a public or private place not designed for use as a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings. People who are homeless are most often unable to acquire and maintain regular, safe, secure and adequate housing due to a lack of, or an unsteady income.Homelessness and poverty are interrelated. There is no methodological consent on counting the homeless and identifying their special needs, therefore in most of the cities only estimated homeless population is known.

To anyone out there reading this, I know you haven't heard from me in a while :)
I found this randomly.  I'm in the UK and I wear glasses now and looking back at these I can't believe it was 3 years ago. Time flies...
Suryanshu lives near me; he's in the UK as well, if you didn't know.
Anyway, if you see this...

We are so privileged to have a home. Think about those who don't have it. People who don't have roofs or wall who is going to protect them from harsh weather? Their lives are so difficult than us. They always seem to think Is life a challenge they need to face? They roam alone on the streets during day and night , hoping a home for themselves. So lets start helping homeless before they become hopeless. Lets all join together and help homeless

"I Wonder"
It is said 'home sweet home'. Surely it is , with all the warmth and comforts it has. But I wonder do we all have one- a shelter and an abode to return at night. I wonder when we slip in our cozy quilts how the homeless people pass on the chilly night.

I dress up daily for school sometimes happy and sometimes halfhearted. But I do wonder, are all so fortunate to have a routine of the kind.

When we switch on the coolers on a hot summer day what do they do to avoid warm winds and sun so bright?

It is such a pleasant experience to see clouds pouring from the terrace of our house but is it always welcomed by the people who do not have shed over the head and whine…

I wonder how homeless kids feel, how miserable would be their feelings when they see us go to school.
I feel the government should set up more schools and educate these kids to brighten their futures as in the modern world soon no one would care for the uneducated and they won't be able to cope up with the society ahead without being educated

Homelessness is a condition which punishes homeless people for a crime they have not done. Watching stars and moon is among their only entertainment and comfort. The air around them is their only blanket. I pledge to help the homeless and i wish and hope that they  all have their own house in near future.

# data[].attributes.body

In cities and towns we see them everywhere ,
living in plight and in despair

With no food to eat and no place to sleep,
With dirty bodies and eyes full of weep.

Does anyone really care about them,
does anyone really think about them?

In the race of becoming rich and powerful,
we have lost the basic nature of being helpful.

let's come together and get rid of this scar,
let there be no homeless ,near or far

I wonder... About these homeless people, that why have they got a punishment for a crime they have not committed..
I always and often look at their condition and think of helping them. I also wonder that if I had been born like this.. I am so privileged.. I pledge to hope about them and help these people from my end completely.......

Homelessness is a major problem. Have you ever observed people living on the streets? Homelessness is a state when people don't have a place to call home. There are various reasons for homelessness
#1-Poverty plays a huge role in making people's lives miserable.
#2-Natural disasters often destroy homes, though this not a major reason.
People who are homeless are not fugitives of the law. They should not be looked down upon. They have never harmed anybody. If you even give them as little as a pair of slippers, their faces light up with joy. Every year I go to an orphanage to give away my toys and clothes that do not fit me anymore.Like me, you should also lend a hand to helpless and homeless people.Here is a little poem I have written to share the plight of a homeless person👇🏻

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder ,how do homeless people feel ? Where do they go at night ? Do they get basic facilities ? These children living on streets with no hope , no direction and no forgiveness but full of life. They have nothing , no bed ,no chair ,no TV ,no mobile to play games .

Homelessness in India ,today is a huge problem . These people roam barefooted day and  night at red lights selling balloons and other items , they work and make money ,they do whatever they want and lives a  less then simple but happy life ,lost in their own dreams and fantasies .We can take our initiative to carry our old clothes and blankets when we go outside and can give these things to the homeless people who are needy . we can also provide them with education to make their future bright and their life simple.

Compared to poor, housed children, homeless children have worse health more asthma, upper respiratory infections, minor skin ailments, gastrointestinal ailments, parasites, and chronic physical disorders, more developmental delays, more anxiety, depression and behavior problems, poorer school attendance and performance, and other negative conditions .There are also indications that these negative effects increase the longer homelessness continues, including more health problems.

The feeling of a homeless kid...
Here I go still all alone
Walking the streets to kill the time
Looking at all the pretty houses
Wondering what it would be like to be one of them
To know you are loved
To know you have a safe warm place to call home
To have a place to keep all of your belongings
A place to shower,eat and sleep
Now  the unwanted  child, Then an unwanted adult
I wonder how to love myself when I have no clue what love is
I pray to god to be born as another person in next life where I have a family who loves me and I would be no more homeless

# data[].attributes.body
Homelessness is an attitude and not a lifestyle or a condition. One feels sad looking at homeless people but the homeless must not take this as a pity and still look at things in a positive manner and not let that effect their ability to work and earn a living.

As a responsible citizen, I would never point finger at them and make them uncomfortable. Instead, I would work towards making them happy by talking to them and conversing as an equal human. Building self confidence in them would be my most important responsibility towards them.

HOMELESS.... but   HUMAN
Unwanted, Unloved and Uncared,
Their lives are in despair,
I often wonder.....is this fair???

Tattered and torn,
Desperate and forlorn,
Hungry and bare feet,
Hopeless...they live on streets

I often wonder...why
So many people passing by,
Can walk right by
And never ask “Why”??

I pray for them for a better life,
Education and hope will bring them out of strife.
So let us all join hands...as I believe “Together We Can”

Homelessness is a state of not having a place to live, a state of not feeling safe.It leads to hunger and is mainly caused due to poverty.
Homeless people need our attention and care, especially children and elderly people. Through this project I learnt about their hardships.

Homelessness is a condition where people do not have shelter. They are poor and hardly make both ends meet. They do not have any status and are always fear stricken. We all along with support of Govt.  should resolve to eradicate this curse from society.

# data[].attributes.body
I think homeless means roofless-without a shelter of any kind, sleeping rough.
houselessness-  with a place to sleep but temporarily in institutions or shelter, living  in insecure housing.

There are nearly 100 million homeless in world most are women and dependent children.

the severe problem of homelessness began in 1980 in HUD cuts .

Homelessness  is now becoming a great problem and it has to be overlooked like other problems. I think we can reduce it by making everybody aware of homelessness.

the main reasosns for becoming homeless are

# poverty
# unemployment
# lack of affordable housing
#  drug  and alcohol abuse

we can help homeless people by donating clothes to them,opening NGO'S , trying to adopt a child and most important,by teaching poor children.

No one "deserves" to be "homeless". There are many problems out in the world today. Among one of the many problem is homelessness. Homelessness is a serious case and it should not be overlooked like many other problems. I think many people today need to take a look at homelessness and put serious work towards helping out. people can help the homeless everywhere, even if it is around your town and neighborhood. You could always donate money to homeless foundation. You can also go there and help build houses for them and feed them. The best thing you could do is help them to adopt a street child . Instead of just feeding a couple of people for a night you could help raise a child into a new better life.

Most of us here have so many things

Fancy cars and diamond rings

A cozy house , and food to eat

Clothing and shoes to cover our feet.

There is a group, homeless and cold

They have no clothes or blankets to fold

They go to shelters in hope there’s a meal

And a warm loving smile who knows how they feel

What can you do ? You may ask ?

The Divine above has given us a task …

I think homelessness is a condition.With millions of  homeless people worldwide , the situation leads to multiple other problems of illiteracy , begging , diseases among other things
I wonder if these people ever had homes earlier, how hurt they are, where do they go for shelter
I wonder if they had a family
I wonder if they have known love and care
I wonder how when all the rest moved ahead ,how come they are bereft of a warm home
Can the world rise and with a compassionate heart ,extend a helping hand
Can all the people of this world have a HOME

# data[].attributes.body
I wonder why they are different from me,
What their struggles are,

What they go through – anxiety, depression or detachment?

When I see them I feel sad

I wonder why God blessed me with all the good things and left out these few

What did they do earn this life?

How does it feel to walk on the street whiling away time?

While I am busy chasing my dreams

How does it feel to be an easy target of violence, abuse and robbery on a cold night?

While I am sipping hot soup under my blanket tight

Their eyes longingly look at me,

Why was Natures fury so fierce to wipe away their homes?

I learnt that education empowers all, then why are we waiting?

Lets lend them a helping hand and give their dreams wings too.

If god has given a life so precious and pure

Lets pledge to help a less fortunate life

Lets not help them with means that shall run out soon

Lets teach them a skill that shall give their life a new bloom

Homelessness is a condition of people
don't have a home. They do not have any shelter, roof, security and money. Whether it is rain or cold , they are always in search of shelter. For homeless people earth is their bed and sky is their roof.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe homelessness is a condition.
# Most of the times poverty is the main reason for it.
# It is difficult for homeless people to get to the right track without help from communities and  government.
# If they are looked upon as a disgrace to  the society, perceived  as eye sores on the urban streets,not offered help of some kind to find a job or place to stay and not shown some compassion it would be difficult to get them out of their condition.

# data[].attributes.body
homelessness is not just a isolated social  evil. It is the catalyst and breeding ground for other problems such as lack of education that makes them beg,stress,unemployment etc.Many who have experienced homelessness for a long time become numb they feel they are separated from society and lack the human touch,they don get their hands shook,they dont get hugs they are detached from social world and is not a very positive world. So lend  hands to help these poor people..........

I wonder ........ if one day, the homeless people will get the financial help , good jobs a comfortable life and a home. If this is achieved then we know that nothing is impossible and that the Government can be relied on for the help needed by the poor and needy people.

They are homeless not hopeless...
They have cold stones as pillows...
Cardboard sheets as comforters
Their blankets are the falling sky
I wonder if they be missed even wen they die..!!

I wonder if they get love
I wonder where do they get food
I wish they could study
And fulfill their dreams...!!

They are lonely but loving
They are needful but content
They are just like u and me
All they need is an opportunity!!

I pledge for the Homeless
For their better life
I wish they get food ,shelter & clothes
And their dreams turn right.
