I pray that someday when confronted with a situation as such in life, i will remember your story and welcome the poor fellow, after all, it's the least we could do, aye! . God bless you both!

I have read your story many times and also e mailed them to many and i salute you for helping a stranger in the middle of the night and not being afraid to provide lodging a stranger. Not many girls would have done what you did. You really listened to your heart not to the mind. Your story brings a lump in my throat.

I walk hours to be able to use an internet cafe at a public place, no one shows me love, i have no friends, cause no one wants to be a friend with a poor young man or a beggar and i fits into those two description. I went through this site and i have decided to tell my story here. I need a friend, a tue friend, who would listen to me, cause i have so much on my chest but have no one to talk to, i,m so alone, please i need you, i,m dying from poverty, from loniness and from not being able to be on the path to achieve my goals, i need a friend.
