How a Homeless Man's Hunger Changed My Life
I remember it like it was yesterday, the day that changed my perspective on life forever. I was walking down a busy street in the city, lost in thought, when a homeless man approached me. I could sense his desperation and immediately tensed up, ready to brush him off with a curt "no" and move on.

The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm orange glow across the water as we set sail aboard my grandad's old fishing boat, The Albatross. I wasn’t quite sure how I ended up here. A last-minute trip with my old friend, Sam, had pulled me away from the comfort of my couch and into the embrace of the open sea.

I Didn't Mean It
I hated him. Didn't matter I was only five, or that Mummy said love you babe at him. Or that he brought us MacDonalds. He smiled too much.
