Jim is not homeless although we generally know what that means, the lack of permanent shelter. His home is his world on Manhattan's Lower Eastside. He is "at home" there where he dispenses the beauty in his own spirit and for that we can be humbled and grateful. -

His art, first and foremost is the most inspirational part of this story. But his open heart and connection with the people in the street is also very inspirational from a different angle. I hope to see him or his work one day in NYC.

Mostly the reminder that there are people out there who appear to be on the ragged edge of society...who are contributing such great stuff that the rest of us don't have time for. -

Lower east side is an AMAZING neighborhood. I have lived in the east village, a few blocks away. People put their heart and soul in these neighborhoods especially when the society leaders forget about them. Then when real-estate becomes needed they claim its time to clean up the place. They didn't care until they decide how to make money from it. Then its destroyed, repackaged and sold. Yet Americans support the idea of capitalism. Freedom to create is not part of capitalism's so called freedom.

How amazing! This man is clearly driven to create and to leave his human footprint. What a shame it was ever conceived of as damaging property. I would prefer a million of these rather than blank ugly concrete...that to me is a visual and community abomination.
