Stay Kind

”I have no home but I’ll be okay” Kenyatta Lewis posted this about her daughter meeting a man who was homeless.
It’s the kind of story that always makes me smile.Here’s what she wrote:
After leaving a store today my daughter did something that made me stop and think. There was this guy sitting there crying and she asks me:“Did you see that man crying? What’s wrong with him?”
I said:“Yes but I’m not sure maybe he’s just sad…”She said:”Maybe he’s hot and thirsty.
”She walked over to him and goes: ”Hi sir be happy it’s a nice day it’s not raining. Are you hot? Why don’t you go home the ground is dirty?
“He says:” I have no home but I will be ok. “She looked at him with the saddest face and goes:
”So that means you’re homeless. So you have no food because you have no refrigerator. “She gave him a few dollars out of her purse and her drink and said:
”Please go eat. It would make me happy. I like McDonald’s you should go there. “I could tell she made his day.
On top of that two more people came up and gave money as well. We had a small conversation and he explained his trailer burnt down and he lost everything including his wife. I felt for him. It just warms my heart.
A 6 year old lead by example this morning. AWESOME! Kids see no color and that’s exactly how it should be. It’s not just a statement saying that the children are our future, it’s a FACT. That gives me a little more hope for the world.—

Know Your Worth
A father said to his daughter “You have graduated with honors, here is a car I bought many years ago. It is pretty old now. But before I give it to you, take it to the used car lot downtown and tell them I want to sell it and see how much they offer you for it.
”The daughter went to the used car lot, returned to her father and said, “They offered me $1,000 because the said it looks pretty worn out. “The father said, now “Take it to the pawn shop.”
The daughter went to the pawn shop, returned to her father and said, “The pawn shop offered only $100 because it is an old car. “The father asked his daughter to go to a car club now and show them the car.
The daughter then took the car to the club, returned and told her father,” Some people in the club offered $100,000 for it because “it’s an iconic car and sought by many collectors.
“Now the father said this to his daughter, “The right place values you the right way,” If you are not valued, do not be angry, it means you are in the wrong place. Those who know your value are those who appreciate you……Never stay in a place where no one sees your value. #knowyourworth
