Be heartbroken, be humbled.
I first discovered this story about six years ago, and it has haunted me.
It first appeeared on the fifth of June, 1997, in a free, weekly newspaper called the Miami New Times. The glimpse it gives you into the lives of the homeless children of Miami will break your heart. And if you write at all, the power of their storytelling will humble you.
