    Much obliged for the warm welcomes and survivalist mannerisms

    Hope to learn all I can before, and if I was meant to be a homeless survivalist in this life and existence?
    Have survived in police station lobbies and in church shelters, and I look forward to the mysterious blessings brought on by Heavenly Father concerning survival in the wilderness
    So far, it's been intriguing to have to experienced the homeless lifestyle for a few months
    But I've also learned that when others don't acknowledge and show love and respect for my own presence in a house, it's time to prepare for living outdoors, I think thus far???
    Have never trusted nor invested in college loans nor my own hard earned $ into formal education at a certified college for any degree in anything to "better my existence" Haha
    But I have spent my time psychologically preparing myself for moments and plans to get to the next step in house living with others, and time and time again relying on packing my backpack with a few days of clothing and my driver's license and atm card for moving into a new shelter or in with a new room mate or maybe someday 'outside'
    God bless all of us and I hope to learn all I can before my time is up on Mother Earth from others that have had to face hard times and harsh realitites of the so to speak 'white picket fence' or American Dream living condition in a house or apartment

    Question

    Oh this photo in my profile's avatar is from Show West years ago. Taken at this event, and some photographer was able to capture the two greatist actors on the planet today, Clint Eastwood and Steven Seagal, also my two favorite performers in cinema
    Hope u don't mind me using it as my avatar?

    I certainly don't mind. I used to be a huge Clint fan, back when I watched a lot of tv.

    Sounds like you might have some experiences to share with us too.

    I know the URL says "Wilderness-Survival" but there's a lot of info on homesteading, urban living, and just hiking/getting out/enjoying nature.

    Welcome to the gang. Pleased to meet you.
    Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. Helen Keller

    one thing you'll find out is that it's not a good idea to call many of us 'survivalists'.

    word's got a whole different meaning for many of us.
