I'm sitting in a restaurant today having lunch, and an older man comes by my table and asks if I can spare some money. Because I've been spending too much time reading Gives Me Hope, I give him a few dollars. Then he asks me for more money saying he's been sleeping out in the cold, etc. I tell him no, but I offer to pay for his lunch if he wants to eat. He says no, he's not hungry, and leaves.
Apparantly he wasn't that hard up.
It makes it really hard to be good to people when something like that happens. There are people who could really use help, and then there are others who just take advantage.
*sigh*
