Forum Support Popular Post Mike J Posted December 6, 2017 Forum Support Popular Post Posted December 6, 2017 Well done Mr. Jack! There is one beggar here in Moalboal that I give money to (only 5 peso at a time). I had seen her many times on the street begging and always refused to give her money. Then one day about two years ago I was eating lunch at the local resto. Down the street about 50 meters I saw her sitting on the dirty sidewalk and eating. As I watched I saw that she was sharing her food with the stray dogs! Here was a person who was destitute, had to beg for food, and what little she had she was sharing with the stray dogs. I have to admit that I felt a certain shame at my actions and an admiration for hers. Now each time I see this lady I go to her and put the money in her hand, I do not wait for her to ask. If I see her outside the bakery I will also her some bread. For me it took an act of kindness by someone far less fortunate than myself to come to a realization of how blessed and privileged I am. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
