So here is a story.. I became a father 11 days ago which has changed my life and it’s amazing.. so yesterday I was walking my son in the area in SA..
Where we live you often get “beggars” and homeless people who just lurk and you are kinda taught to ignore but yesterday I greeted a chap and then he said “sir, can I please ask you something?” I said sure! He politely asked if I had a spare pair of shoes for him as his souls were worn through and walking in them burnt his feet.. I asked what size and he said 11… I said give me 20 mins and I’ll be back.
Finished my walk and packed a bag full of clothes and shoes and some food and went back..
I then asked him his story - he’s been in JHB for 10 years working odd jobs, his ID book and bank card have been stolen as he’s been living in the local park during the day and at night sleeps in an old electricity box so he can be “safe”…
I asked him what his dream was - he said to be able to go home and see his mom and son which is 4 hours away - so I told him to meet me this morning at 9am at the same spot and I’ll take him to the bus station and buy him a ticket to get back home..
Perciavl is his name and I’d like to see if we can rally around and get enough sats to buy him a mobile phone and some data for me and him to keep in contact.
Below is a picture of me getting him
Some food for the trip home in his new drip 🙏
