Eventually some of the older homeless/poor would come and ask us for a smoke, food, etc., and we would get into some pretty good conversations. Most of the people there just delighted in having someone new to talk to. I've considered doing something like getting 10 taco bell burritos and hanging out around the plaza and seeing who would come. It's not a huge deal, or even a big effort on my part, but it can lighten their days.<br /><br />Good luck loving people! Let me know what you start. I'm looking forward to the comments that come too :)Molly Whitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04459029795531792659noreply@blogger.com
