“When I went undercover in New York City as a homeless man, no one noticed me. I felt what it was like to be a homeless man. People would just past by me and look at me in disgrace. Only one lady was kind enough to give me some food. It was an experience I’ll never forget. So many times we forget how blessed we are. We should not take that for granted. And if we can help someone in need, we should. That’s why after I was done, I walked around and gave food and $100 to every homeless person I saw. They cried and were so grateful. Be the change you wish to see in the world.”
Felicia Arista This is a homeless old man in my city, Jakarta. Was beyond moved when we were just there to drop some food for the stray dog, we saw him there, splitting the food he received from a kind person into two (which was already a tiny portion of rice). When asked why he did so, he said, “The poor dog looks so hungry. He is so thin. He needs to eat too.” This is the true definition of giving out of poverty.
