Appearances keeping time

Some weight loss drinks don't taste good. Either too thick and chalky or thin and icky. When looking at immediate options and paths to take, people experiencing homeless have sometimes the same feeling.

Then it wears down a tad after a day or two. And pretty soon a week goes by, and they're still looking like they're adjusting, but they're not greet. It's usually after 30 days that a person begins to transition and their body starts physically accepting what's going on.

And the longer they continue, the less likely they are of positively wanting to make change and ever return from whence they came.

When they originally felt and were.

Because they don't want to go through it all again.

Sometimes when you're homeless, it feels safer to be stable that way than the instability of becoming homeless.
