Random Acts of Kindness - Time to feel GOOD

Intermezzo:
We try to be accommodating but had to draw the line when one particular woman kept asking to use our oven to cook their dinner. She claimed that something was wrong with her oven.
so nice.. sounds like Uncle Lim Provision Shop..UncleLim:
It is true, Funx. We live on ground level too. We have often been involved in \"borrowing\" of eggs, potatos, tissue paper, plasters and sugar.

Later we checked with her domestic helper and the real reason came out: \"Ma'am does not like to use the oven because it makes our flat very hot ! \" :siao: :siao: -

You are too kind to people who don't deserve the charity. Such people are the bane of society. They make the charitable cautious and suspicious, which makes it even more difficult for the needy to get the help they need.We try to be accommodating but had to draw the line when one particular woman kept asking to use our oven to cook their dinner.

My helper was very upset and tried to refuse her politely by saying our oven would be in use as we were roasting chicken. Her reply? \"Oh? ok I send my maid down to your place shortly.. what time will your chicken roasting be over?\" :faint: :faint: -

Oh they definitely do not need charity! With 2 luxury cars in the carpark and all sorts of very high end kitchen appliances in the home...
Yes, all the more we have to seek out who are the needy and help those who are suffering silently and still maintaining their self-respect. -
