Mission: Going Homeless/ Research-draft

Operation: Going Homeless

Objective: 2

-Research and build case studies.


"Life is a lesson waiting to be learned and experienced." That is philosophy of Mission: Going homeless. One of the key elements to it. Growing up as a rebel with out a cause, all that time I spent shuffled from one institution to another, I felt free. All the times my life seemed it could not get worse, I made the best of it by learning from it and seeking close counsel in friendship. As an "Input"  which is basically someone who thrives on data and knowledge I am able take from these relationships that are built and provide a much needed insider look. And we're able to do this two ways. 1. My own perspective as being homeless my self and 2. The information, experiences, stories, advice. ect. from the other guests at the shelter and the people in the community. This research can and should be formulated with the input and applied to programs, community members and non profits willing to participate in "Mission: Going Homeless" Or as one person put it “To take ideas from one person is plagiarism but to steal ideas from many is research.”

“Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought” Albert Szent-Gyorgyi (Hungarian Biochemist 1937 Nobel Prize for Medicine

“The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a growing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing; it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all things in life.” Hugh Walpole, Sr.

“Love is but the discovery of ourselves in others, and the delight in the recognition.” Alexander Smith (Scottish Poet and Essayist,

“We learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.” Samuel Smiles 

“The most important of my discoveries have been suggested to me by my failures.” Humphrey Davy
