Mario

This is Mario, a homeless man who talked Tyler into buying him incredible amounts of food. This is one man I am sad that I am not guaranteed to see again. Though he did not radiate happiness he was a very intelligent man who had lived his fair share of life. He told me bits and pieces of his life all of which were terribly unfortunate. He did however admit that he is not looking for, or desires having a job but he is still an awesome person. I recall him saying in his broken english "Its not like I have never slept outside, woken up and looked at a worm and had him say to me 'No, you can't eat me, you will have a better meal today!' there are things that I just have to do sometimes." This man really broke my heart. Honestly, a great person.
