Something Charitable You Did Today
Say something chartiable you did today.
Today I entertained a jobless farang - walked and talked with him in a park.
I also gave a toy to a Thai child. (There were so many hands out I wished I could have filled all of them, but had to keep some for later).

Re: Something Charitable You Did Today
Good thread PT.
I smile and nod at the peasant workers who've often hardly seen a white face before. The smiles I get back are amazing.
I bought a toy for the cafeteria lady's grand-daughter the other day. The kids here probably don't get much in the way of toys and books.

Re: Something Charitable You Did Today
retrieved 2 decent pairs of shoes (more or less my size, coincidentally) from a bagful me bro-in-law was giving to charity, making it less for the charity workers to carry away therefore less hard work for them
nice like that, me

Re: Something Charitable You Did Today
Found an extra point for a good student, to move him from a B to a B+ in his last class at university.
