Three times this week I ran into panhandlers and it is only Wednesday. Two over by Walmart on the south side and
yesterday while sitting at a light for about 5 minutes out by the Mall. I want to say get a job. The effort that is taken standing out there
with a sign is more than they would have to do for many jobs. As I have been getting older I have become
more cynical and when I see the sign that says will work for food, or anything
will help or down on my luck. I want to
say we all have bad days, how we choose to let those days guide us is up to
us. I have heard from others around town
that they have given food and drinks to some of these people and it has been
left there on the side of the road. I
also notice that once someone leaves from a particular panhandling place that
often that place is left littered with candy bar wrappers and pop cans.
