- first of all, i wanna really thank baby g for sportingly sticking with me in my granny's throughout the whole of yesterday. getting all the stares from all my relatives, having interogating conversations repeatedly .like "where r u from?"," what do u do?" blah blah blah, you get my drift.watching 4hrs of bad tv (aww, that really sucks) with all the people you'd never met before is just sweet, sweet, sweet. *slurps* i really appreciate it lots, of your every effort of sharing my world with me and not complaining for the slightest bit still. thanks, my smoochie baby. *smooch*

my sis and i never fail to drop a coin whenever we walked past the needys. i mean, if you're worried if you should buy this top or dress or shoes, be it every once in a while, or was it a monthly excercise, whats a dollar to spare for someone who's needing (or not, it makes no difference) it and begging you for that little charity help? for those guys outs there, bragging about the newest gadgets they had just purchased, the things they splurged on on the gals they fancy, and their hundred and one indulgences. why's a gold coin or even 50cents even a pinch at all? i seriously thought a guy with a big heart is definetely more impressive.
reckon??
i was taking a stroll with my sisterkins and we came across this old helpless man with a bandage and spreading himself comfortably on the side of the ground, he had to, he got a bad wound at his knee too. after i searched through my pocket and finally found some change for him, i overheard a disturbing conversation between two ladies walking ahead of me, crossing the road and completely dissing the poor man off with thier stupid selfish thoughts.
women A : (grabbed B away after walking past the old man) don't give them money!
women B : (shaking her head) no i won't lah. dunnoe whether they're faking it anot.
women A : ya, we rather donate directly to the home or charity.
women B : ya loh, ya loh...
i doubt it. i think these excuses are lame and god should make these ppl eat their words should they be presented with prove that whatever they contributed will be for the homes and intellectually disabled, and nope, they still didn't donate. i did volunteery work selling new year goodies for gathering funds to build a better home and provide better living enviroment for the aged and the disabled and came across ppl who gives all kinds of excuses in the world and it makes me wonder where the warmth of the season had gone to? of course, we encountered some who really didn't need extra shopping for their house and generously donated a token of their heart without getting the goodies. *heads up to those kind ppl out there* .lets assume the old injured man lying on the street was a fako, BUT he's in his fifties or sixties, couldn't find a job and resorted to dressing himself with bandages and earning a living to feed himself, i don't diss him off with "he's a con man and no, we should not donate",i think he's better than ppl who robs or steals right? anyway, why be so hard on everything and isn't life miserable if you have to justify upon doing a good deed? this is pathethic. i despise anyone who shuns away making assumtions, and denying your selfishness to help others and worst, making excuses for it. Pttui.
its the thought that counts. im broke but i do other nice things to make up for it. i had never really donated a huge sum to any of the charity but i believe i will at least try to bring warmth to them. its not a selfless act though, it brought me happiness.
