You really don't appreciated friends, family, technology and basic needs like showering until your homeless and lost. 
  I was homeless for two weeks, I dwelt with paranormal creeps and druggies.  I didn't lose my integrity and self respect by doing street drugs etc.  
I believe I deserve this name for remaining strong. Not giving in!
I appreciate life more and people more.  I am happy I haven't been kidnapped or killed.
One last note,  I understand how hunger and thirst feels like and fear. 
I try to be kinder to homeless and those without because of it.
