Stumbled across this amazing blog entry from several months ago and realized it was never shared with all of you.  This is tragic as it is quite moving.  An excerpt:

Sometimes I can feel like I don’t have much… especially as I see all of the wealth that surrounds me in Newport Beach and Irvine. But then I read of those who equate the ability to sleep on the streets in a clean sleeping bag with “being in heaven”, and I realize how rich I truly am! I have a bed to sleep in, in an apartment with heat and A/C. I have food to eat, a job that I love, and I don’t have to avoid people because I’m embarrassed by unwashed clothes.

Please do click through and read the rest of tcKev’s thoughts on Laundry Love Santa Ana.
