    A few Weeks a go we had a really freezing day and it was early morning. I was on the way to the bank to make a deposit and walked past a youngish couple who were sat on the floor with nothing but a blanket to keep them warm. I felt cold in my nice warm coat and I know how cold it is to sit on concrete, so I asked them if they would like a hot drink.

    I'm not sure where they were from, but the man was putting his hand to his mouth, so I asked him if he wanted food and he said yes, so I got them something hot from the cafe to help warm them up.

    The food in the cafe looked lovely and I hadn't eaten myself, so it was tempting to stop and eat, but I was too busy and had things to do.

    I've also been to visit my old neighbour from back home who is widowed and in her 80's. She is a lovely woman and I really enjoy spending time with her. She was not doing so great last year as her dog was poorly and she was sad, but this year she was really up beat and she had a new dog she got from a rescue home. Thankfully she has a lot of family and I think she said she had 54 Grandchildren and great grandchildren in all, so she will never be lonely, but I still like to check when I go back, as she and her husband were really good to me when I moved in next door with a small boy.

    It's good to have your eyes open and notice the people around you. Apart from reminding you that there are other people in the world, it also reminds you that what ever life throws at you, someone else is coping with much worse and be glad of what you have.

    We are all the same, no, it's not just about money, it's about dignity, aspirations and a need to have a belief, In yourself !!. I know.
    Most people don't realise how close this situation can be.
    Wanna really help ?
    Then share with them your weakness !!


    *** miss you on this one LH, hope you are in a good place.

    Hey don't shoot the messenger but if you look at when he switches camera angles at the 3 minute mark. Either he had a 2nd cameraman or that 1 cameraman moves at lightning speed. The homeless guy didn't even flinch when the camera moved up close. Also, the guy in the hoodie switches positions when the camera angle switches that and that video made the maker about 100,000 dollars at this stage ,its a postive message thought although a bit patronizing to the audience in my opinion but every one has different ones I guess its a better message than the kissing pranks where the guy gropes and half rapes the girl
