I believe my day was blessed....
While at work I got talking with a ragged looking man of african descent who most people would pass off as a homeless bum.
HOWEVER -- what intrigued me was that he was carrying and lugging around a lot of heavy window cleaning equipment. Curiosity got the better of me and I started a friendly conversation with him. Started off as random chatter about his 'trade' as a one-man-band window cleaner to his dream about trying to grow it to a point where it became a fully fledged business
This guy had so much passion for his dream and also for what he did. working himself to the bone from sunup to sundown.
I told him he could be a great mentor of young people. Get some of the younger generation to help him out with smaller projects or jobs and instill some work ethic into their souls while their still young. Youth these days want big money without having to work for it.
We spoke about a few charities or organisations who might be willing to fund his project of working with youth before parting ways.
But before we parted I paid for his lunch.
I just wanted to spread a little love, encouragement and community spirit to a fellow human being who is trying to scrape together a living in a labour intensive job from the ground up.
--- I realise I probably make no sense and seem pretty random but im honestly half asleep after a very long day.
His money was very hard earned and it was an honor to have bought him lunch.
I see so many homeless people out there who just huddle in a corner holding up a cardboard sign with the other hand open... There are honestly big businesses that could give these people jobs for the day where they can earn their keep. Im sure most of them want a chance at life but being a homeless bum doesnt exactly make it easy for them to get jobs....
even if its sh!tty menial jobs like cleaning busses, cleaning buildings etc etc -- these people need a chance at life and because of cuts to services by the government and local councils. These people are ignored by everyone

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Good morning. We had rain overnight here. Dull, but not cold.
