    Helping those in need.....
    « on: January 01, 2007 - 06:54:00 PM »
    I thought I would post this during the most giving season of the year....


    As I walked down the busy sidewalk, knowing I was late for an important interview, my eye fell upon one of those unfortunate, homeless vagabonds that are found in every city these days.

    Wearing what can only be describes as rags, carrying every worldly possesion in two plastic bags, my heart was touched by this persons condition.
    Some people turned to stare. Others quickly looked away as if the sight would somehow contaminate them.
    Recalling some long ago Sunday School admonition to "care for the sick, feed the hungry and clothe the naked," I was moved by some powerful inner urge to reach out to this unfortunate person.
    Yes, where some people saw only rags, I saw a hidden beauty.
    A small voice inside my head called out,
    "Reach out, reach out!"

    So I did..........

    Unfortunately, Ms Oldschool didn't think much of my desire to help out......

    I get out of the hospital in about 3 months..
    It would be nice to get a card or maybe a visitor.
    Hey, could someone scratch my nose, Please!! Come on!!!

    Ken,
    you are a good man to put yourself in harms way to help out that poor helpless vagabond.  I think Mrs. Old owes you an apology, after all you were just being compassionate.
