[quote=WANHU,479174]This is the life we have, Dear Raindrop, arrogance.  Some rich people look down on poor people, city dwellers on village people, high ranking officers on street pedlars and list goes on. They forget they come from the same root, breathe the same air, blood of the same colour.  We used to say, the poisonous snake that glides under the tree root won't lose its poison meaning if we respect people whoever they are, won't lower our status or dignity.

During winter in 2005, I was in Shenzhen.  I was surprised to see one evening many young girls and boys stayed near the pavements of the shops, huddled together among themselves.  I was told by my interpreter they were from other provinces seeking for jobs and no place to stay and waiting for a daylight for them to go home.

We went to  a nearby restaurant, and gave RMB150 for the cook to prepare some porridge and vegetable to provide them some warmth.  I am not rich to provide them lodging, but RMB150 won't make me richer nor poorer.  What if one of them was my sister, niece or even daughter?
