The Beggar Stories: February 2010
http://thebeggarstories.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 3, 2010. A single mothers love. I got home, went straight to the remaining loot bags my friends donated and went out, hoping that the woman and her child are still there. I left the bag with the carton sheets, making sure that the woman will find it for later. I was filled with thoughts about the mother and child. The walk back home was much heavier when I was carrying the bag. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Donation for the beggars.

The Beggar Stories: June 2012
http://thebeggarstories.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 28, 2012. A Matter of Theatrics. Dec 14, 2007. An old man clinging on his walking stick asked for alms. His face was purposely disfigured, and instead of asking properly, he was showing his rolled tongue. I reached for my pocket and unfortunately found a 25centavo coin to spare. I gave the coin and before I can go further I heard a loud sarcastic "THANK YOU! I smiled knowing that he was able to speak after all. I was in a hurry so I never looked back. Links to this post.

The Beggar Stories: November 2008
http://thebeggarstories.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 10, 2008. It rained hard on a Saturday afternoon. I imagined a few hours after the rain, that a wet shaking old beggar will look for her carton sheet, only to find it cold and fragmented into pieces - just like her hopes and dreams. I saw the end the bridge, but it didn't end the gloom face I had. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Beggar Stories: June 2010
http://thebeggarstories.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 23, 2010. After sitting for nearly two hours in the bus, the sight of the Dau stop-over was a relief to see. The bus would soon be flooded with vendors enticing passengers of 'buko pie', 'hotdog' etc. - and the once quiet bus isle will be a festive market of food and drinks. I planned to stretch my legs outside, so I quickly stood up as the bus was brought to a stop. It made me realize how important it is to find hope, no matter how dark the night is in our lives.

The Beggar Stories: Project Pearl : A Charity Work at Ulingan

Monday, June 11, 2012. Project Pearl : A Charity Work at Ulingan. It's been a while since I last wrote to this blog. This goes to show that I really need to go back to my old self of helping out needy people even in small ways. I've attached here an image of a charity work I made with Project Pearl in helping out the kids in the Ulingan, Tondo: A community near the charcoal factory. This is one of the slum areas in Manila.

Thursday, November 29, 2007. Early Christmas Charity Work. Just a short blog before I immersed myself in writing my master's paper. Last night, after enjoying our company bowling tournament, I was able to start a personal charity program that I've been planning for a long time now. The idea is very simple: Instead of shilling out to poor beggars, I intend to provide the basic items they will be needing especially this time of cold December. The program will be made weekly until the end of December. He wa...
