=**__ Summary __**=

The passage starts out with the author Anna Quindlen doing a story on homeless people. She finds a homeless person named Ann and confronts her about her being homeless. Ann disagrees and shows a picture of a run down house even though Ann has been living in a bus terminal for the past 2 weeks. So it is apparent that Ann does not live in that home anymore.The author then goes on an elaborates about how home is were you make it, and it is not the big picture of things but its the little details that make home, home. The author then goes to state that people refer homeless people to just homeless as if it was what a person really was instead of the materialism that they didnt own and it should be that they really do have homes because they find comfort and a sense of being where they live."We turn an adjective into a noun: the poor, not poor people; thehomeless, not Ann or the man who lives in the box or the woman who sleeps on the subway grate."
