This ad for the Salvation Army caught my attention, because I feel like it bluntly points out how easy it is for the homeless to just blend in with the noise of the city. It makes me realize that to most of us the homeless are no more than the piece of trash on the side walk in the corner of our eyes. This add makes me wonder why it is so easy to look past a homeless person when their situation is so dire. How can we walk past the same person sleeping on a bench every day and not once think, "How can I help them today?" or "I wonder what stories they could tell." I guess all in all it just opened my eyes to a different social issue (ignorance).
