Friday, December 23, 2011 ( 2:51 PM ) shut up christine on tuesday we went out with Monday Night Mission, an amazing volunteer group that passes out food and clothing on skid row monday through thursday (if you're in LA, i encourage you to check them out) a couple other volunteers thought makoto was homeless this is not the first time he's been mistaken but i love that about him he only wears dickies pants, a rotation of 8 t-shirts, and a couple hoodies i've looked at pictures of him from 4 years back .......same t-shirts when we were taking physiology together, our class lasted 14 weeks and for 14 weeks, he wore the same 2 outfits the entire time genuine unapologetic simplicity around this time of year, between thanksgiving and christmas, there's a huge push to buy stuff. i tell myself i DESERVE to have this, AND its on sale! there's nothing wrong with that but i don't really need these things, ya know? i'm just cluttering my house and still i crave more stuff i would like to replace my stuff with more of these "things": family time makoto time sunlight fresh air #

Hi Kit! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog. Please continue to write! I just looked up Monday Night Mission and love the idea. My family and I used to do our own version when we were little.. and the images of the homeless surrounding our car for the food we had inside still remains with me. I will have to join up on of these days. :) Take care my dear, always love your ideas and cant agree more with the replacing of "stuff" with the "things" you listed. xoxo, Ann
