Just askin, mind you...

Outside my "shop" I have a couple of "pup" trailers parked. One is secluded by old pallets and equipment skids. Underneath has been placed an old mattress. It's obvious homeless folks are sleeping there overnight. I've not tried to do anything about it.

This morning upon arriving at work I found a couple of folks still asleep. I tried not to disturb them and didn't run them off. That action got me to considering: "How does one help those of lesser circumstance without making onself vulnerable to them and their predations?"

Or, are we called to making ourselves vulnerable to the world around us?
