Masiela Lusha: I worked at a soup kitchen in Burbank and set up tables, washed off tables and served. The amazing thing about the homeless is that they have such optimism. They help out the other homeless. I give them so much credit.
Masiela Lusha: It is a tough business to do all on your own. You always need some support, you always need someone to back you up and to remind you that another day's going to come. I still say, to this day, how blessed I am to have my mother to support me and to be there for me 24/7.
