Do You Think Of The Poor?

Some people are so consumed with their wealth that it is all they can think about. They worry about it and how to protect it and increase it. It is the prime focus of their life.

They are almost unaware that there are people right around them who are hungry. Perhaps the waitress who served them coffee this morning or the man who parked their car. Maybe it is a person who cleans their home or their office.

The poor are not always visible and usually try not to expose their needs. In fact, sometimes they deliberately fake happiness so that you will not know of their needs.

Every religion in the world speaks of this issue. Feed the hungry, do good works every day, no salvation without good deeds in this lifetime, take care of widows and orphans. The words don’t matter. It is the message.

Look around you. SEE THE HUNGRY.

Sometimes an unexpected large tip will feed a family for a day or two or three.

Be the person who doesn’t have to be asked.

Just surprise someone in your everyday surroundings with a quiet, generous gift and expect nothing in return.

Feel the joy in your heart.

Do it often!
