I could not believe what happened to me this morning. We get our chronic medicine on the 24th of every month. As I was walking up the stairs of the building leading to the chemist a man approached me and said, could I help him out with some money?
Now I do always give if I think a person really needs some money, so I am not stingy but today I had absolutely no money with me and said I am so sorry but all I have is a credit card to buy my medicine.
O that does not matter he said, and I said sorry maybe someone else can help you. Thinking at least I am friendly. Then I got the surprise of my life, he said wait I will give you the list of things that I need. “I will wait for you until you bring my things and be on my way.”
So now he wanted me to do his shopping with my credit card and still bring the list of things he needed to him. I really did not know what to say; except I’m sorry but even with my credit card I cannot fill your list as I just have enough money to buy our medicine.
He looked at me as if I was crazy and said leave it I will come right somewhere else. Now I have seen many beggars but just thought, this must be the limit of all beggars. Has anyone else had a better, beggar experience if you had let me know?While looking for an image of a begga I also came across these.
