Homeless Man



Just sneakily shot this 5 second vid of a homeless man taking a break from his daily grind. After lugging the bags and cart, he quietly sits near the fire hydrant and rests for a moment.

Right after i stop filming, he gets up, throws a milk carton into the garbage can on the corner, and leaves with his luggage.

it's a bit sad in a way, but for some reason i feel that he's found some sort of solace in this moment alone. i'm sure in the back of his mind he doesn't want to be in the state that he's in now but in this moment he has taken a step back, away from the cans that remind him of who he is, and is just one with the city; probably happy to be alive and knowing full well that he'd rather struggle to live on his feet than to give up and whither away in an alley.

i see that this man has a perspective. Even with the city continuously toppling over him, he has a perspective and the will to move on. True soul.
