A young boy is walking down the alley
To a poor Frenchman against the wall
He sits there with his empty bottle
As if it were filled at all
The man holds out the bottle
And asks the boy for prayer
But instead he shoves a dollar in
The man gives him a stare
And because it seemed as if it
was money he was begging for
The boy reaches into his pocket
And gives him just one more
The boy said “That’s 2 dollars,
It should last you for a day”
While the man sat looking at the bottle saying
“So this is how the Americans pray”

Worry is like a rocking chair--it gives you something to do but it doesn't get you anywhere

Love to all from me ~
Even if money is the root of all evil, it's something we use to support the people of dire need.
