This Thanksgiving Remember The Neediest & Remember They Too Human
A Holiday POV From A High End Porcelain Plate Maker

We all are pre-homeless, one way or another, pre-hungry, hard to be pre-in need of any of life's most essential comforts...THESE ARE NOT ENTITLEMENTS NOR LUXURIES...food, shelter and respect.
This Thanksgiving I hope people will look at the expressions on forlorn faces and realize you did that...we all have done that to each other.
My own friends assess my needs, as if manufactured or un-deserved, because I was a Vassar College graduate, just like they're fan favorite "Foodie," except, I didn't drop-out, nor take recreational drugs in heavy dosage, nor did I have a trust fund, not even close..and, oh yeah, I am still alive and striving.

Everyone seems to judge my needs through a filter of "charity," as they humble so many who find ends hard to meet, these days and prior. What charity should taxes be their deductible...?
...I have worked hard, done everything as well as I could, I am not in need of charity, most homeless people are not looking for a hand-out, as most business people aren't scamming the rest of us.

At least be honest about your own hands- clean, dirty, flipping the bird to others or just WASHED, like hands that don't leave fingerprints, as if the "of it" is me, who is so not even remotely you.
I made plates...people need to eat...try to be kind this Thanksgiving...AND charitable and not mean.
Remember the neediest...not me.
