"Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.'" - Matthew 25:45

Being invisible is as lonely as it sounds.
Every day, I sit here
with my cardboard sign
and outstretched hand.
Every day, I sit here
waiting.
Waiting for someone to see Christ in me.
Waiting for someone to see me at all.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
