Quantum Motion--A Poem
Beautiful poem! So profound. My friend informed me that this year is indeed the WATER dragon. "The largeness of what we were was, in hind sight, so small...." I love this part.— January 1, 2012 9:56 a.m.

San Diego's Dreams for Change lets you sleep in your car
GREAT story! Sorry it took me so long to get around to reading it. Kudos to surfPuppy619 and nan for the links. I found them both very inspiring. I lived in a 30 ft. fifth wheel trailer (a Nu-Wa Hitchhiker) from 1978 to 1980. Of course it was in a sanctioned park in Half Moon Bay, CA with full hookups and laundry facilities in the park. Back then, I was much younger and the experience was fun. Both my husband and I had well-paying jobs in Menlo Park, so we had lots of money to spend. As illustrated in this article, today there is a whole different scenario with unemployment, no built in facilities in the rolling shelters, safety issues and the constant harassment by the police. Each year at Christmas, I donate all the money I would have spent on gifts and cards to worthy charities instead. This year, I will be adding Dreams for Change to that list.— December 4, 2011 2:39 p.m.
