Comments on: I love ya, I do! http://www.apartment2024.com/2007/04/11/i-love-ya-i-do/ Food, family and synchronicity, in mostly equal parts Wed, 20 Aug 2008 02:38:28 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Anthony http://www.apartment2024.com/2007/04/11/i-love-ya-i-do/#comment-27928 Anthony Fri, 13 Apr 2007 01:13:56 +0000 http://www.apartment2024.com/2007/04/11/i-love-ya-i-do/#comment-27928 I have had my own experiences with the homeless in the city. Generally, I have a hard time turning them down for loose change or a dollar. Mostly though, I buy them food. One, a one-legged man who claimed to be a Vietnam vet was sitting outside the Wawa, not far from the Reading Terminal. He asked for a Yoo Hoo and Reese's cups. How could I turn down such a decent request? In I went to fetch him his booty. He was so happy, and I made his day with such a simple shopping trip. It made me feel as good as it made him feel.

So, I just want to let you know that I mean no ill harm by that ... just my sarcastic nature. Now that I’ve posted it, it seems a little offensive.
