As the author himself says, “To forget would not…

Did you know that Austin has approximately 2,200 homeless people and almost ⅔ are completely un-sheltered?…

I cannot say that any of it was discipline because one is disciplined when they have done wrong. However, I have also learned that one can get abused for no reason. I will not pretend that I did not know that it was wrong. I have always known right from wrong. I like to believe that I allowed myself to endure it for two reasons, the first…
