WEEK 4

Good Things and Kindness:

1. Giving money to the poor While I was on my way home, I passed by an old man. He was sitting on the ground in his old, tattered clothes waving his begging bowl around. It didn’t have much money in it and he was asking for money that he could use to buy food. I had some spare change sitting in my pocket and decided to give it to him. Once I did, he smiled at me and said “maraming salamat, ingat ka.”

2. Opening doors for strangers I was at the mall going into the bathroom and there was an old lady walking behind me. As I opened the door, I stepped aside and held it open for her. I let her walk ahead me before heading inside the bathroom myself.

3. Taking care of my sick cousin It was just my cousin and I at home and she was sick. She had a really bad fever and had the stomach flu. No one was around to help her out and take care of her, so I did. I made her some soup and I would give her medicine every 6 hours.
