Toffees in the Car

A super simple and super nice gesture: I saw this done by a friend, and it had this deep impact. To keep a bunch of candy in the car at all times to be given away to beggars on the streets ( its pretty India specific).                                                    

                                           

The sceptics will still ask questions ….. wouldn’t they prefer money? wouldn’t they get used to it? what if they don’t like sweets?

It’s okay you know. They’re people too. To those who you would give money, give this is addition….. to the older ones, give it as a choice….. and it’s especially brilliant for the kids to who you’d rather not give money, give them candy instead, which kid wouldn't like toffees. And the feeling nice at the giving end…..it’s the best. You’ll for sure see a whole lot of expressions of surprise and joy.

It’s something I’ve shamelessly copied and made habit. My car dash always has candy for the street kids now :)
