Homeless people rely on the generosity and compassion of strangers. They live in a world that we do not understand or comprehend. What we may see as trash or garbage they see a shelter or a meal or a warm coat. What we may view as a necessity they deem to be unnecessary. They form families among themselves. They watch out for one another. They will share among each other if they have. Their mentality is not like yours or mine. Not that I am saying that they are insane but in order for them to survive in the harshest of elements they can not afford to think the way that we do. They have to do away with emotions that we base our lives and conduct on. While you and I would be embarassed to be seen digging in a trash can for food, clothing or some other basic need,. They shed their embarassement and do what they have to to make it through another day.
We are all capable of survival it is the most basic instinct that humans have. And it is the one thing that we all share. We live in a society that has coaxed us into forgetting about what it is to just exist and live. However if everything that we know was taken from us tomorrow we would not curl up and die. We would adapt to our new enviroment and learn the art of survival again.

Many live and survive off of instinct. My father was homeless for sometime and he survived on people assisting him through shelters and food programs.

I'd approach churches and soup kitchens. Then I'd take any job I could to make it on my own.

there is antural instinct in human beings, all are born with it, and it is the only thing that all human beings have in common. that is the fight for survival.
the same thing that makes a new born baby cry out first thing is teh same thing that helps these homeless people survive out there. the new- born knows that its life depends on that cry, so it will do what it takes to cry, or sneeze. same as them people out there, they will do what they have to do to stay alive and survive it all
the natural unadulterated human conscience guides them in the beginning, (the guidelines of not stealing, being nice to people and just the general goodness of the human heart) but much later, if conscience does not help them much in the fit for survival, they do what they have tod, kill, steal, beg, lie, whatever, just so they live one more day
best regards
