A few days we decided my dad will go to India next week, so shopping had to be done this weekend. While we were shopping dad spotted jackets on sale, he bought about 10 or so to pass out to people that looked cold. When I said it was a nice thing that the poor people would apperciate it, I got scolding right there in the store. My father would like to remind everyone not to label people poor or rich because you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. When you label people, you make it hard for them to break out of the label.

If possible, you should try to help as many people who need help... whether this be by finding them shelter, giving them food, or money.
