THE GREENER GRASS

All the homeless people I meet on the street really want is a steady income, a roof over their head, ready access to clean water and food. And yet, they're spending their days drinking alcohol out in the open air, with no responsibilities in their lives.

Strangely, I'm devoting my days to securing the steady wage for the food, the water, the roof over my head, and I'm spending my time thinking how great it would be to have no responsibilities and be able to just sit out in the open air drinking alcohol. And, I don't think I'm alone in this attitude.

What it boils down to is there are a lot of employed people out there suffering from "homeless envy".
