I have not received any help

I haven't done much to strangers too

How much help have you given to a complete stranger before?
Well, for me I have not been blessed with the opportunity to have much money in my life, but grew up from a family blessed with much to eat. So I was not lacking in terms of food because my parents were farmers.

So I gave food stuffs most of the time to friends and strangers as well.

So giving means different things to different people.

So let me tell you a short experience how I gave a complete stranger some food.

Few years ago, my family traveled briefly so I was the only one at home. I decided to cook rice and stew. Just before the food was done, a complete stranger came and told me that he was stranded. He further stated that, he came all the way from Nasarawa to do menial jobs here in Port Harcourt, but the person who brought him could not provide the tools needed for him to start the cobbler job so he has been sleeping at the Mosque.

He asked me if I can help him with some food. So I quickly went into the kitchen and got him a plate of rice and stew. I could see the joy and happiness on his face.

After eating, I gave him water. He was grateful.

He left afterwards, I was happy to be of help to a complete stranger.

If I am to monetize the plate of rice perhaps it would not be anything above N400, but it could be quite much to a stranger in need.

Maybe that food could be worth several thousands at that moment.

So can you share your experiences how you have been of help to a complete stranger.
