The " L.I.V.E Project " Continues ... Live Internal Vital Eternity

I've always wanted to help the less fortunate but I have had a negative take on sending out things like money, clothes or even food to major charities. Every time I decided to contribute the disturbing thought of where the stuff actually goes always comes to mind. So one I decided to visit one of the local homeless shelters in Brooklyn New York, Located on Atlantic Avenue and Bedford Avenue it stands tall overlooking the BedStuy area. A massive structure like no other, it's known to be one of the biggest shelters in the New York City area, housing up to hundreds of the less fortunate.

Earlier that day, I had decided to print some shirts to give out or even donate to a local charity, little did I know I would end up proving my self right. After hours of work I finally arrived at the shelter. Feeling un welcomed from the time I stepped in the door I was greeted by "Can you please put your bag on the scanner”. Confused I proceeded to explain the situation, why I was there and the goal that I was trying to accomplish.

Making the attempt to personally distribute the pieces seemed impossible to the workers. Turned down by the security guard and her fellow officers, I was giving one option that was leaving the clothes on a chair in the hallway and giving one to the female worker at the desk. Turned off by this, I figured why not make the extra effort to make sure the clothing gets to those who are in need and so it begun.

Hitting the streets of Brooklyn New York with my childhood friend Bryan, the everlasting journey of creating balance had officially begun. An experience like no other the feeling of helping the ones who have some how paved the way for us was pretty much overwhelming. Leaving you with this thought; unfortunate but true, one thing I noticed was when you have nothing to give everyone asks but when it's time to give no ones around why is that?
