Little anecdote regarding " sharing is caring "
Not so long ago I was sitting in my car in a parking lot having a sandwich. As I finished my sandwich and I was about to drive away, a homeless lady around the age of 60 was next to my car going through the trash looking for food. She found some fries with ketchup, and as she pulled them out of the trash, the ketchup fell on the ground. This did not stop her from using the ketchup. Amazed by all this, I got out and offered her my bag of carrots I was keeping as an afternoon snack ( I never give cash as it might get turned in to drugs / cigarettes / alcohol / ... I prefer to give something of actual value )
As I approached her and asked if she felt like some carrots instead, her first question was " Are you sure you can miss them? "
I often saw video's on youtube where guys handed over some food to a homeless guy, and then an actor showed up pretending to be homeless himself and asking for a piece of the food that the real homeless person just received. The homeless guy without a doubt shared his food. Turns out that it's true, people that have literally nothing, get the greatest joy out of sharing the little things they do have, or in my case making sure I could really do without my carrots.
I encourage all of you to try it out yourselves!
