,,,just talked to a homeless man for an hour...


The text message below was forwarded to me from a good friend a few nights ago, from his friend who was actually with the homeless man.

"Just talked to a homeless man for an hour. Bought him a beer. Lance bought him food. Even after all that, the man still divided the food up between the rest of the homeless people."

I read this text message at least 5x's the night I got it and have read it countless times since.

I am blown-away at the generosity of a man that has nothing, yet when he's freely given essential needs [food and drink, not necessarily beer], he doesn't hoard it all to himself... he divides up between those that are in the same position as he.

Even in the midst of a storm there's hope... believe it OR not...
