On Friday October 16th I will be participating in the 10 hour homeless experience. During this time Myself and whoever else participates in the experience will spend all night outside living as if we were homeless our self. We will not have any sort of cell phone or any technology at all with us during the night.

I think this will be a good experience for those participating. It will give those of us who have lived a very good and rich life to see what it would be like to lose everything. How it would be night after night sleeping without a roof under your head with no midnight snack whatsoever.

We must also raise a total of $150 by the 16th for this project. This money will be going towards good causes that will help people in need. So in a way this project is like killing two birds with one stone. We experience the life of a homeless person and we donate money to a good cause.

I think it will help my personal growth in order for me to be successful. Honestly, I'm a bit naive, I really could never imagine what life would be like without everything I've been given by my parents. Whenever I think of the homeless I always picture the images I see on TV. And while some of those might be true, I still really don't know what it would be like. Hopefully it will open my eyes a little and give me the motivation I need in order to live a successful life.
