O
ne chilly night as I was going into a small grocery store I saw a very sad and lonely looking homeless man sitting near the door. He didn't say a word. When I went into the store I bought a large hot coffee and a large chocolate candy bar. When I came out of the store I handed both to the sad man and he cried with tears of joy. The smile on his face filled my heart with joy and stayed with me for days. I have learned it doesn't take much to bring a smile to someone's face.

  | Posted May 20th, 2009 at 8:38PM You are such a sweet thing!   |
 | Posted Jun 3rd, 2009 at 3:28PM I totally agree. I hate to think of helping out starving children 1,000,000 miles away while those in the next block are also hungry. I just need to figure out a way to find out who they are and help without them knowing who did it. |
 | Posted Jun 3rd, 2009 at 3:38PM That is such a beautiful thing to do. It is also noted in the book upstairs Jesus said "whatsoever you do for your fellow man, you do for me" |
 | Posted Jun 3rd, 2009 at 3:43PM You are awesome ! |
 | Posted Jun 3rd, 2009 at 3:50PM That's such a lovely thing to do. Blessings to you |

 | Posted Jun 3rd, 2009 at 8:18PM I feel the same way. I love to do things for strangers. My family doesn't appreciate it when they ask for my help and I give it to them, but strangers, they are so easily to make please. My husband, when we were just dating 3 years ago, gave me a few christmas presents. He got those gifts from casino's. When you play enough, they send you cards to pick up your free gift and the gifts. When I opened the gifts I was so happy. He couldn't believe the way I acted when I opened them. He said that they weren't much but I told him I love those kind of things. Just simple things to make me smile. I try to be giving with people that less fortunate then me. I don't have much but It makes me happy when I can help someone out. |
