RE: Do you give money to beggers???
All valid points @jennypottuh, even the one about those begging to keep their fancy lifestyle...some different kind of burden that must be eh?
I believe that those who have enough and share are blessed...and those who have little and share are divine.
And you're just that kinda person...~smiles~
Haha awww thanks! Yes this topic really got me thinking, because its true, theres always the possibility that the person you are giving to actually is just scamming you, and then because of the thought that birju had "if you give a man a fish he eats for a day teach a man to fish he eats forever"... but then I think about times where I have been needing and strangers have helped me, and I think if what I give or do has the possibility to make a small difference, even if its just to bring them a smile, its worth it.
@birjudanak this was a really good post!! it really got me thinking a lot today :)
better a beggar than a banker scam you...yes/no?
just don't allow either in your home...that's just too altruistic ...imo
I speak from experience :-/
Aww oh no. Well at least you learned a lesson from it and can now pass the wisdom on! You seem like a really nice person. :)
