So this will be my very first post, forgive me if my grammar is not that good, and I hope that people will get the message that I'm gonna try to say here.
So, earlier this morning my Mom and I were walking through the streets of this place called "Philcoa" we were waiting for a cab and then I saw this guy, he was American, he looked like a middle-aged man, maybe in his 30's, he was wearing glasses, a gray shirt, a pair of jeans and old shoes, he was also carrying a bible. He was asking people for money, he was begging for money, I heard him say that he hasn't eaten anything yet and he was asking for help, everyone was ignoring him, it's like he wasn't even there, I mean, it's like he doesn't even exist, I felt really bad for him so I went to him and gave him 20 pesos and then my mom gave me 10 pesos and told me to give it to the poor man, so I did. After giving him money I told him to take care of himself and Good Luck, then he told me "Bless you, Praise the Lord, Thank You." those very words made me happy but I still feel sorry for the man.
Right now, there are lots of questions in my head. WHY, why are they like this? Is helping another person too much to ask? I know that most filipinos are having money-related problems but the guy wasn't asking for a hundred bucks, he was just asking for help, which means you can give him any amount of money. What if you were in his shoes? I know you would do the same thing. This is not what God wants for us, please, don't think twice before helping the ones who need help. Please, open your eyes and listen to them.
I hope you understand this post because right now my mind is not functioning well, I'm not even sure about my grammar
