There’s a well known man in my community who is homeless. He never bothers a soul and one day he was behind me in Aldi. He had a few bottles of water and juice and some packaged sandwiches. He’s fishing out coins from his pants. I told the cashier I’d pay and then told him to go get anything else he needed.
He didn’t say a word but the look on his face was all I needed.
