I won't say I haven't questioned some of my giving.. several weeks ago, before I left the house, I counted my paper cash. This is something I never do, as I don't spend cash and really usually carry a $20. Well, I had only a few dollars in cash. So? That afternoon, as I was coming out of myT's office, a lady was there, I passed by her and she called me back. HUH? She asked for $6.75 to catch the bus to the rail to get to Boca. I told her I didn't have that much, but pulled out the singles. I told her, " Now it's up to you to use it properly." I really don't feel poorly about this, even though I question her need.. as I was prepared (by God, I think) to give that day... plus, she earned it.. how clever a ploy I thought: psychologically I enjoyed it, she asked for an amount that would render ppl to believe her, plus might even get her a $10 from someone without change! She let me pass by, and called me back: how bold! I think of them as street actors... and if they entertain me, I give.
