My son shared Tyler this story with me last night....
This guy commented on my Goofy tattoo when I got on the train yesterday. I'm not sure of his situation personally he but he proceeded to tell me he was homeless and had nowhere to sleep last night. He had a bottle of booze in a paper bag, however I felt like I should keep talking to him. I told him about 'lentil as anything' (a local Sydney restaurant) and how he can get a free meal there any time if he volunteers his time. He didn’t have a phone and asked if I had a pen. I didn’t have one on me, but someone behind us was kind enough to lend us a pen for him and I wrote down the address and details. A school kid was sitting opposite us and then gave the guy $5 change out of his wallet with no prompting. The guy got off the train and he shook my hand, the hand of the guy who lent us the pen and also the young kid as he got off. As we all left the train we exchanged nods and a smile. We didn't need words as everything had been said.
It felt real good to give.
Kindness is infectious and powerful.....
