There's no denying it is a tough world out there. There's also no shame in asking for help. But when people don't ask for help, there is a simple beauty in offering anyway; which is exactly what these kind people have done. Except, rather than being praised for their actions, they have been shamed for it.

When giving money to strangers who need it, these people have been reprimanded under the belief that they were being scammed. The responses are admirable; there is nothing shameful about helping another person in need. And if it is a scam? That's their karmic problem.

This is the post that started the discourse.

It's so sad that people often don't have enough money for the simplest things.

This story is from the other side...

This person didn't have enough money to feed their child...

Until...

A beautiful stranger helped out.

The responses are beautiful!

We do nice things for people in the hope that if we were ever unfortunate enough to need it, people would do the same for us.

Pass on the love!

Simply put:

Internet scams vs helping people out in a gorcery store

Just! Be! Nice!
