Just yesterday I had a bill that needed to be paid but I couldn't.
At the last second someone stepped up and saved me from a domino effect type disaster.

Later that same day I had gone into the grocery store to get some food and was out in the
parking lot sitting in my Jeep eating a sandwich from the deli when a young girl barely out of her teens stopped and said that she was very sorry to ask but she was desperate and had no money or way to fed her two year old kid and she was on her way into the store to basically beg for some food.

It's hard to tell these days when someone is being sincere or just scamming but she really had that sunken demeanor of near hopelessness and I only had to think back to earlier in the day when I didn't know what was going to happen to me so I reached in my pocket and gave her the seven bucks I had left.

It really sucks people have to ask for food but it's better than resorting to crime
