“You shall neither mistreat a stranger nor oppress him…”
-Ex 22:21

“Also you shall not oppress a stranger, for you know the heart of a stranger because you were strangers in the land of Egypt”
-Ex 23:9

“If one of your brethren becomes poor, and falls into poverty among you, then you shall help him, like a stranger or a sojourner, that he may live with you.
“You shall not lend him your money for unsury, nor lend him your food at a profit”
-Lev 25:35,37

Imagine what kind of world we would live in if Jews and Christians actually followed this concept. There would be NO need for government issued welfare. Also consider this:

“If there is among you a poor man of your brethren, within any of the gates in your land… you shall NOT harden your heart nor shu your hand from your poor brother, but you shall open your hand wide to him and willingly lend him sufficient for his need, whatever he needs”
-Deut. 15:7-8

Found WAY awesome comfy chairs Indoors! Too good to be true? We’ll see how long I feel comfortable staying. Not a well defensible position makes me uncomfortable for such comfy chairs.

Day: Wednesday
Time: 0129
Location: Harbour Side




Decided to leave comfty chair area. Not well defendable and to many sounds. As it turns out, while I was walking out, security was walking in. Walked through Harbourside shoping center again, nothing open, even if there was, I have no money. Guess I’ll keep lapping the harbor until dawn when I can sleep at the botanical gardens.

Cold… alone… hungry…
Feels a great deal like my OA Ordeal.

Found two homeless guys. One asleep, the other looked like he’d steal one of my kidneys. Past up chance to talk with them.

An amazing amount of people in this part of town up and about. Found Maccas and Hungry Jacks that are open. To bad I don’t have money.

Walking to Circular Quay
