is this for real? sorry for being cynical but i've seen, read and heard stories of beggars here and abroad who do these things for sake of money and whatnot.
when we're in California, there were these people who brought cardboards on streets with honest expressions of dollars-for-beer.

if she's sincere with her story, i hope someone had helped her.

kahit dito sa canada may ganyan, ang mahirap pa kapag taglamig, buti na lang may salvation army na nagbubukas ng pinto para sa mga homeless, yung kahirapan, sakop nito ang buong mundo, kahit na mayamang bansa pa apektado syempre.

rj, what did you do then? nakakaawa.. it really triggers anyone's emotion.. after a night in bed, what's next?

HalfCrazy said...

Hi there!

It breaks my heart having to see this. Especially here in the Philippines, you get to see 2-3 people in dire need of help everyday.

Sardonyx said...

RJ said...

DOC GELO
Totoo po 'yan, Doc. U



MANILENYA
May Salvation Army rin dito, huhmn... hindi yata ito lumapit doon.



LOIDA OF THE 2L3B'S
Sinabi kong hindi ko kayang magbigay ng kama sa kanya, then tinanong ko kung pwedeng cash nalang, 'oo' raw. Kaya binigyan ko.



SARDONYX
Tinulungan ko, binigyan ko lang ng 'isda', alam kong hindi 'yon sapat pero hindi ko kasi alam kung sa anong paraan ko sya turuan kung paano mangisda.

kuya, kahit san naman meron nyan eh, hindi rin naman kasi kasiguruhan na kapag mayaman ang bansa mo lahat ng tao mayaman din. its same in the US.

Thank you for your help. Para mo na rin kaming tinulungan.

So what was her story? Magiging untold na nga ba forever? I hope not.

yes indeed... homelessness is a global problem...our kababayans who haven't been anywhere outside our homeland can't believe that there are beggars and homeless people here in australia and in other so called wealthy countries...

poverty, addiction, alcoholism,family breakdowns, loss of employnment and mental illness are only a few of the main causes of homelessness....
and unfortunately, some young ones choose homelessnes rather than living with rules at home...even if they have loving families who care....

did you take that picture yourself?...did you ask permission from that person if you could take his photo?...

RJ said...

HAZELVEE
YES. This is the answer to both questions.
