And all went to enrol themselves, every one to his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David; to enrol himself with Mary, who was betrothed to him, being great with child. And it came to pass, while they were there, the days were fulfilled that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son; and she wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. (Luke 2:3-7 ASV)
Tis the Season to be Broke! But when you're already at rock bottom nothing matters because you gave up on hope a long time ago. Being broke and having nothing is not a good feeling. To actually have to go without, being forced to miss a few meals and make things stretch is a rough and tough place to be. Being desperate to the point where you'll do anything to get the things that you need, cause you ain't too proud to beg...can sometimes get ugly. Pressed to make ends meet, and things are still not coming together. Everyone said that you would be great, they said that you would go far, but none of that matters anymore because right now your only focus is making it through right now. It doesn't matter that you're gifted and that you consider yourself pretty talented, all you know is that when you look around and count your assets, you're barely holding on.
