And you're right, everyone -- even the homeless -- already knows how to fish. It's just that only some are willing/able to get up and go do it. And tomorrow's tomorrow. You're right.

And I've done my fair share of work at various homeless shelters around the bay area. Most of the hours were spent at the Richmond shelter. But even that, I don't think is the most efficient means of aid. Grandmas and retirees would be great fits for service in such a job, but I believe (I hope!) that I can use my skills and relative youth to help in other, more effective ways. Yet regrettably, that is not to say that I am making any sort of effort to help. So, circling back, perhaps I should go volunteer at a shelter. mea culpa?
