A quick note on the homeless. When I biked into Honolulu for work I would pass this one lady who is very angry about the military and she would stand outside the Pearl Harbor gate yelling at the cars going into the base, so as I passed I would yell at her. Then as I aged, I decided to maybe try a soft answer, and started being very kind to her, I would say "good morning sunshine, great to see you today." After about a year of doing that she quit yelling at me and the other day as I passed she replied "Be safe on the roads" I was amazed and smiled all day, well I smile all day anyway but that was precious.
