Today. Today I was walking down the street beside a nice woman, fairly chatty, over all nice person. We happened to pass a somewhat homeless looking man selling papers. Well he asks if I have any change to buy this paper, and I didn't but I took the time to talk to him and ask about the papers. The woman stared at the ground and didn't even try to make eye contact...infact she made it soo completely obvious that she was avoiding making eye contact that it made me sick. But anyways I started thinking...Uhoh. haha. anyways ya, this man was wearing his weakness on his sleeve. He was basically bearing his soul. SO many times I try so hard to hide the fact that i have a weakness. But its true, we all have weaknesses. But to me that man was a huge encouragement. He wasn't being afraid. He was taking a leap of faith. I don't know this mans life story, or what brought him to the streets of edmonton. But atleast he isn't hiding himself away from the world. and to me thats way more honourable and beautiful than the so called "perfect" people.
tata for now.
