A few weeks ago, I took out some garbage. Now in my refuse, there were aluminum cans. And on the other side of a fence seperating the property, someone asked me for those cans. I gave them to him.
This afternoon, as I took out some garbage, I noticed another individual in the same area. I offered them the cans. They accepted them.
I offered something else as well.
A bed, shower/bath, TV, phone, heat or A/C... a room, for a night. In the same hotel I was staying at.
My offer was declined. I was told, "You have already done enough."
How humbling.
A person in need, a person able to provide.
Was it pride?
