"You may have heard the line 'most of us are just one paycheck away.' It's a sentiment intended to generate empathy and recognition that we all have needs, and that basic needs for each of us are essential to our health and well-being as humans. But there’s danger in the single story, because a single story doesn’t tell the whole truth and can so easily fuel fear and uncertainty. And fear and uncertainty are debilitating and prevent us from creative, compassionate change. Maybe it is 'just one paycheck'… but it could also be just one diagnosis, just one medical condition or major health concern, just one un-payable insurance bill, just one eviction, just one violent relationship, just one abusive parent, just one job loss, just one major rejection and you're out on your own. Just one mistake. Just one. -OWL, Overnight Warming locations, Edwardsville, Illinois (fb)
