Impoverished Soul

Pulverized by life’s circumstances

Swaddled by the hunger of defeat

Thirsting for a helping hand

Exhaustion has become a refuge

Starving for a soft place to land

Half naked in despair

Mental and spiritual anguish

Filthy bricks comfort a frail body

Passed up by brethren of human origin

Rest eludes a weary soul

Needing, praying, hoping, and pleading

For the luxuries of a home

Author: Kimberly B. Bellamy

Background:

Who are we if we aren't first and foremost problem solvers? We live in a world filled to the brim with opportunities to develop solutions for life's most pressing issues. Our gifts, talents, and inner light bear no weight if we have not used them to uplift one another. What fulfills me you ask?... I am fulfilled by the possibility to change the world through the elimination of homelessness. Now before you think to yourself, what a monumental task to undertake, let me remind you, depending on your age, we have all experienced homelessness in one form or another. Some people have been physically homeless, while most of us have experienced homelessness of the spirit.

How can someone be homeless in spirit? Have you ever been in a barren place that required you to turn inward because everything you tried led you further and further away from a home within your very being? Whether it was unhappiness in love or a career, or illness in the body or mind, we all reach a point in life where we are in search of meaning and healing. Homelessness is an issue that ails the human race far more than we'd like to acknowledge and since I'm no spiritual doctor who can touch everyone in the world feeling lonely, misunderstood, unloved, misguided, unfulfilled, or just through and through troubled by the traumas of life, I created a mission and a business to eliminate physical homelessness as we know it.

Statistics:

The World Population Review reported a total of 555,663 people in all 50 states who are experiencing homelessness in 2021. This number does not speak to the magnitude of international homelessness and poverty, but change begins by empowering just one person.

I do not have a robust social media following but if I had to use my imagination, I would say people might be inclined to follow me because of my creativity, wisdom, and direct honesty.

The Solution:

In February 2021, I created Mystical Property Solutions, LLC to commence my mission in the eradication of homelessness. The plan is to learn, do, teach, and expand through Government policy reform and by creating campuses that include emergency housing, healthcare, training for skill attainment, childcare, and permanent affordable transitional housing options in all 50 states. By monetizing my creativity, I will have the financial backing to pay for the cost of starting and operating a business with a powerful purpose. It is my hope that people will support my creative endeavors which will include poetry readings and writings in support of funding Mystical Property Solutions, LLC, among my basic needs. Supporting this mission means contributing to a legacy of love.
