Helping Others

Not just 'sometimes' 😜. There's a community/street paper here in the Seattle area called Real Change News. You'll see the vendors, many of whom are homeless or otherwise disadvantaged, all over town selling the papers. I oftentimes see them outside of grocery stores. I think that buying one is a great way to help another person, and really the community at large. It's so disheartening to see the vast majority of people just walking by without even a glace, let alone a purchase - even at Trader Joe's 😯. Aren't us TJ shoppers supposed to be like 'woke' and stuff⁉ 😜 Here's a couple of ideas to overcome the reasons why you may not be helping (buying a paper) - ▪No cash on you - They now take Venmo! 💲 ▪You don't want to read it. Don't then 😀. ▫You could just make a donation. ▫Buy it and leave it at work, the coffee shop, etc. ▫You could give it to a friend. ▫You could save it to wrap a gift for a friend or colleague. When they see the paper they'll think you're 'woke'. 😉 ▪ You're broke - Maybe just a glace at the vendor and a friendly hello. 😊 ▪ You just don't give a sh!t. I'm sad for you, I wouldn't want to live in your world. 🙏 'We can't help everyone, but everyone can help someone.' - Ronald Reagan * Regarding the meme - I personally believe that we should still be kind and perhaps even give to those that DO beg as well 💛.
