Blessing The Silent Majority

--by heartofflesh, posted Aug 1, 2012

I gave some money to the old man who sells posters on a footpath I use.

His must be a hard and lonely life. I do not know much about his background. All I know is that but for my education and my parents I could have been in his position.

Such people are not bitter but resigned to their fate and there is no real support for them from the state. Yet, I often see so much goodness in them.

They are part of this city and of something larger called humanity. They too must live and they too must be supported and that must be God's will.

I bless that silent majority! I am sure such people exist everywhere. Please, be kind to them!

You are so right on there: everyone is God's creation and are in need of love and support from others. In short: People are people!

It's so easy to turn the other way. I did that yesterday over something very small (a penny a confused man dropped that I didn't pick up for him), but the little things can make a big impact. Like the day where people scowled and grunted at me when they felt I was in the way, and then (later) the waitress who was all smiles and kind words. Made a ton of difference.

Sorry! I'm rambling! I'll sign off now ;)
