It sounds like you are looking upon this new landscape before you as plentiful with opportunities.
I found myself legally homeless. My son and I put all of our stuff in storage, except necessities. We stayed in my parents' semi-finished garage for about 9 mos, along with our 2 big dogs and guinea pig.
For homeless people, I currently have in my car: socks, snacks, dog food and dog treats. I just keep the car stashed with goodies. I share food with them when I have some. I have been known to turn the car around and go back to share what I have.
I always have a smile for anyone on the corner panhandling; I hope they feel seen by me, and not invisible. Long ago, I used to avoid eye contact to avoid being asked for this and that.
Many blessings on this new leg of your journey, vestige.
