He Didn’t Want to Be Alone
At a glance, the homeless guy was like most other people on the streets. He was huddled in a corner, trying to stay warm against the harsh elements. He also appeared to be very lonely, and a little sad too. This broke her heart but she marveled at all the times that he managed to put a smile on his face and engage people in conversation.
He wasn’t begging them for jobs, money, food or clothes. He just didn’t want to be alone and there was no better cure for loneliness than conversation. But not everyone was in a talkative mood.
