A Very Refreshing Story.

It was refreshing to read about three young men around the age of 13 who had been talking to a homeless gent in our town centre. Apparently they had been questioning him about what food he liked. After sitting listening to them for a while a lady stood away from them and took photo's of the young men. I think she maybe thought that they were going to do something nasty and took photo's to identify them had they done so.
The young men went off and returned shortly after and presented the homeless gent with two bags containing pop chocolate and food. These young men had visited the local Greggs food outlet and asked them to donate some food. They had then gone to another shop and asked the same also pop and chocolate. Again this lady took photo's and with the story and photo's contacted the local town paper where there was a write up of this good deed. The school were these young men attended were so proud of them and quite rightly so..

There are some lovely caring children/teenagers out there, despite what some people think. Random acts of kindness are nice to know of and it was nice of the woman to take pics, even although she might have been suspicious. It was a lovely story in the end . Their parents would be so proud.

I always say that there are far more good people than bad people in the world.
