Helping a Person.

I have had enough!!!! We'll never help anyone again......EVER!! I'm too kindhearted, or I'm too stupid....
Yesterday it was so cold out that i let a man stay in my 5th wheel for the night, out of the kindness of my heart. I felt so sorry for him. Poor thing was trembling out in the cold, but this morning he had just vanished. Not a word...not even a goodbye or a thank you for sheltering him!!
The last straw?!?! When I realized he had peed all over the RV floor!!! That's the thank you I get for being good to people?!?!?!
Now I'm going to warn my friends to watch out for this man! He is heavy set, wearing nothing but a scarf, he has a nose that looks like a carrot, two black eyes, and his arms are so skinny they look like sticks!!! Don't bring him into your RV!! What a huge mess he made on the floor. ☃
Merry Christmas!

I heard he's sought shelter in a box just outside the 7-11 downtown. He's trying to do it right. If you pay the attendant $2.67 you can help keep him off the street and you can take a gift block home with you.

there's probably more to his story and i'd guess he was embarrassed thus his hasty exit.
You helped him out and your damage/loss was minimal.
When you open up your heart, there's always the risk of something unexpected occurring.

God bless.

Was he a "jolly, happy soul'?

You know he'll be back again someday...

a couple weeks ago.. an older man.. like 75 asked for money for food... I was at a gas station...

I offered him a warm lunch from inside my trailer... he said He!! No... Cash..

Your bad deal.
This Too will Pass.... he could have cleaned up his accident.. but split.

a kind heart does PAY.. someday.

I'll bet he had a rather "frosty" attitude.
