These structures offer protection from the elements of nature. But this basic need is not so basic in our country. Whenever I walk home, I pass by a homeless man who sleeps on the street with pieces of cardboard as his sheets and the cold, hard pavement as his bed. This has been my reality check. I become so sheltered, cloistered in my cocoon of convenience sometimes that encounters like these send me crashing back to Earth.
