people on the street for food.
The video entitled ‘Asking Strangers For Food’ shows a young man approaching strangers on the street who are eating yet have enough food to share. Every person the man encounters is quick to decline the request made for part of their meal.
“Excuse me, can I have an extra slice? I’m hungry,” the man in the hooded OckTV politely asked. “Get the f*ck outta here” was the ferocious response in return by a man eating pizza.
After being rejected by everyone who was asked, the OckTV man then approached a homeless person sitting against a building and asked him for a slice of his pizza. This homeless man who had more to lose than the others kindly obliged and offered some of his food to the hungry man.
After sitting and having a slice of pizza with the homeless man, the OckTV member stood up and humbly stated, “Thank you so much. For being so generous to me, I want to give you a nice little tip.”
He then sat down a pile of cash next to the man who appeared to be down on his luck.
This video truly makes you reevaluate how we give to others and what is really important in the world.
If you ever found yourself hungry and in need would you want to be treated like a pariah or would want someone to reach out a helping hand like the homeless man in the video did?
The next time someone less fortunate than you inquires you for a little assistance, please remember this video.
We could all stand to learn a thing or two from it.
