Oh dear Lavengro, I've just watched your link and it made me cry it really did. It breaks my heart to see people walking past ignoring the poor man. I think it must be almost as bad to feel a total outcast as to feel hungry and cold. I've seen such things (and far far worse) in W Africa, mothers with children literally starving in Senegal, disabled youngsters in Accra, Ghana, prone on the ground dragging their useless legs along by their arms at the roadside, all with that terrible hopeless expression. It isn't just money they need, it's people caring and being concerned. They need support and friendship.I feel totally powerless to do much except pray and offer a little money and a kind word.
