You brush past them every day on the sidewalk, drive past them at the end of the onramp to the freeway. The homeless.
Without having a conversation with them, you know exactly how they got that way. Drug addicts. Alcoholics. Uneducated people who failed to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Scam artists who choose not to bathe and let their teeth go to hell so they can live a life of luxury based on the quarters they collect every day.
You employ whatever judgment you conjure up that helps you reduce their humanity to the point that they become invisible.

Deliberate Acts of Kindness
Apr/04/11 09:01 AM Filed in: Good Deeds
In keeping with PLR’s commitment to spreading “good news”, we’ve created this blog for all of our friends and listeners to share great feel good stories and ideas.
The first topic is ”Deliberate Acts of Kindness”.
We’re inviting you to share your stories of deeds done to help, inspire to just be nice to others, whether humans, plants, the environment or animals.
We’re going to start out with a story about a small but significant act of kindness from former NBA star Alonzo Mourning.
We’ll pick winners each month from all the entries to win great prizes. Thanks for stopping by and have a positively wonderful day!
