The End
In The Street Lawyer Micheal fights for the legal rights of the homeless people. He cares for them and starts to build relationships and understanding with some of them. The same way these people are in the cities. They want to help them. They understand these people on the street are still human and are able to get back on their feet. When they are able to help them they are able to feel joy and compassion. In a way helping the homeless is more human then what other people are doing day to day. Most people just walk to work and sit on their computer. Then they walk home eat and go to bed. repeat. They don't even pay attention to the men, women, and children starving on the side of the road. They are blank minded and robot like. Just stuck in their retinue. Still someone turns their head and uses the free will most people forget about and they notice these people. They feel for them and a spark lights inside of them that makes them want to help. They are drawn to shelters, soup kitchens, and for some to the streets just to help. Helping them for some is a way for giving back and for others a way to help a poor soul get their life back. How they feel at the end is life changing. Once they see what they go through it makes them want to help more. They get a front row seat to the horror movie that these people live. Then they see what people do about it. Like Micheal they get mad and torn and want people to stop everything they are doing to help. They fight and try to get people to help but no luck. Micheal tried helping this one lady named ruby who was trying to fight her drug addiction to get her son back. At first she wasn't doing so well and would kip her meetings at AA/NA but then she started wanting a change. She went to the meetings and over the weekends they would put her in a drug free zone in a hotel with lots of candy. She was so happy when the first night she didn't do any drugs. she came out and yelled I'm clean! then they kept putting her in there because is seemed to be working. Some would consider that a success. I don't. One or two nights isn't anythings. she can still go out there and do it again. It's when she is near it or just sitting alone by herself and doesn't crave it anymore. It's where she can go months almost years without craving it that he then call himself a success. Calling himself a success after a couple days is like washing the clothes you need to day ,but not the entire pile. He needs to finish what he started. I do predict though that he will. He will get her clean and get her a job. He will help her find an apartment and get her life back together. Then once she is stable he will get her kid back, but that wont be the last she hears from him. He will still be in her life and will walk acrossed the hall way to her apartment , that he got her in his complex to keep her close, and they will have their everyday donuts coffee and news. Only this time she is reading to him.
