I ...I Christmas Kindness'ed on your behalf ;-)<br /><br />I took a cab home on Friday night and chatted up the driver. I found out he is highly educated (2 masters degrees!) but when he came to the us 20 years ago, couldn't get a job in his chosen profession as a teacher and turned to driving the cab. He told me he likes it but works 7 days a week, 12 hour shifts to make ends meet and averages about $100 a day after all his expenses are paid. I realize this would be a lot for some, but not in NYC to support a family of 4. Also not when you literally never have a day off. It wasn't much but I gave him $40 for my $20 fare because I hoped I could bring a bright spot to his night. He called me back over after I got out to tell me it was too much and he couldn't accept it. I refused to take it back so he asked my name and told me he would make sure his kids knew who had provided extra for them that day. I on;y wish I had been able to give more (so much for never having cash on me!)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01862742943075897509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8431848885886526817.post-46384063339722101502011-12-04T20:54:31.851-05:002011-12-04T20:54:31.851-05:00I actually really like that it's called Christ...I actually really like that it's called Christmas Kindness Project. In fact, I've told my Bible study about it and we've decided to do our own Christmas Kindness Project. Just wanted to give you a word of encouragement!Just Another Mummy Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06746771790862399920noreply@blogger.com
