“Home is a notion that only nations of the homeless fully appreciate and only the uprooted comprehend.”? Wallace Stegner. A PEEK-A-BOO As a young child, I used to look at the streets and wonder why so many people were living on dirty streets. I used to get intimidated by them when they came too close and thought that they were some villain approaching to harm me. As I grew up, I never stopped questioning myself about the people on the streets.
