Quoting Lyndie: When I was in Izmir once in the winter, there was a really old lady sitting in the snow on just a thin blanket begging, she must have been 80 years old. i gave her YTL20. My friend went mad. He said that she was rich and had more money than we did, because he had seen people like her on TV.
I said that even if that were true, she deserved the money just for sitting there freezing her a*** off in the snow.
I asked him why he believed everything on TV, and he said 'why not?' - I think the authorities say these things to stop themselves feeling guilty about the fact that social care is so bad in Turkey that 80 year olds have to sit in the snow begging!
Maybe she should get a job heh? 80 years old - Let's see what could she do....hmmm...all suggestions welcome!
Begging is a job like anything else, if you get an income and suffer in some way for it. I don't think little kids should do anything at all but play games and go to school. I don't think old people should do anything but eat, drink, be warm, have someone to love them and anything else they feel like! |
im gonna burn in hell for that... damn me...
hihi
