Blind leading the blind

[Jollygoodfellow]

Impressed how people help each other here. The other night I was watching the jeepneys come and go from the new terminal when 2 blind guys appeared, first one had a cane and the other hand on the firsts shoulder to follow him. Security guard came along and first blind guy puts hand on shoulder and guard takes him to where to get the jeepney.

Then last night 3 blind appear but another  guy at the front of the group was the eyes and not blind but had a disability. He was short because his legs are severely bowed but I guess his job is caretaker of the blind so has a purpose and job in life.

It must be so hard to be blind in this country but at least some help is around.

At this time of year we can see acts of kindness in people, wherever we choose to live.

It's just a pity it doesn't last the whole year through!

Even Charities use this time of year to appeal to people's compassion with TV ads.

Wouldn't it be nice if people showed compassion for the less fortunate all year round.

Thanks for sharing your observations

The way people help and assist one another is one reason I love the Philippine people.  It is just so heart warming to see the young adults helping the elderly and watching the children walking arm in arm.   I will be doing my "getting old and decrepit" in the Philippines, not in the USA.

Let's pray that the Philippines doesn't become too Westernised then Mike.
