    Giving sugar cane to kids, getting Kurt out of a bad situation, taking him to his home, not for any money, nothing, just out of kindness. He deserved that $1000 every bit, and to anyone reading this in Kenya and Zambia $1000 is probably equal to about $10,000 here in the US. Minimum wage there is about $5-7 a day and that’s only if you went to high school and graduated. Most people cannot afford school so they’re making more like $1-3 a day. When I went to Kenya I gave people $5 worth of American for certain items I was buying and seeing someone cry and hug you over $5 is like insane. It changed their whole lives just with $5. Kenya is an amazing place!

      I'm european, the Euro is stronger than the dollar so I can't really compare myself to that since our levels of poverty are luxury for them and for us. But the point is 5$ can change a lot for them. Kenya is an amazing place, its sweet that you can change someones life with spare change you have in your pockets.

    Edwin reminds me of a young Indian guy I've met on the streets in Mumbai, India. He showed me around the slum areas upon where he lived. He wouldn't allow me to pay for anything, using the little bit of money he had for our cheap street food tour. In the end, I still gave him money ( which he was reluctant to take). As an African American tourist, he made me adore India and its people even more.

    • @JunkBondTrader
      @JunkBondTrader Рік тому +8

      Truly lots of lessons to learn from Edwin... But, you're allowed to be unhappy. Humans adapt to their environments very quickly, and set a new standard almost immediately for what will satisfy us. We're all, always wanting more. But yes gratefulness is important. Stopping to actually appreciate how much we have, where we live, instead of focusing on what we don't. Even if we acquire those things we don't have, it gives us only temporary satisfaction, then it fades fast, and our lives are back to the same as it was before. Even the richest people at the very top of the tax bracket, have plenty of potential for unhappiness because of this quality of humans. What's cool though, is whatever one's situation, they always have potential for happiness, too. Take Edwin, who even seemed eager to show off his little place. Which is the size of a tool shed here in Canada lol. On the other hand, it's probably this insatiable drive for more that has made humans so successful. On the other hand, it's probably this insatiable drive for more that has made humans so successful.
      I find it better to look at money as something that can remove stressors, and barriers in your life, rather than something used to acquire material possessions. Sounds so cliche to say this, but true happiness really does come from within. I was born 89, just turned 34. It's only in my late twenties up until now, that I fully realize why people say it all the time, and how true it is.
      Anyway, I can relate to your comment. It's hard to be happy sometimes, no matter how much you have. Deep down, I know the things I must do to fix my unhappiness. They are just... Hard, and I want to feel good now. Always been my problem, instant gratification over delayed gratification. Perhaps you also know what it is you must do to improve your life. My advice, though I'm not too much older than you, is to find the inner strength to just do those things. Don't put it off like "one day I will do all that". That's what everyone says. Life moves ever-quicker. Alright enough rambling out of me. I've had one or two too many to drink I think haha, cheers, from Canada.

You can see the purity and just gentleness of this guy, he’s so nice and kind hearted. Kind of reminds me of myself when I was kid before I let society turn me cold, but not Edwin. He lives a life far harder then most but yet he keeps his light, he’s honestly a really pure person. He carries around that energy that’s almost child-like, no matter the situation or the problem he’s just carefree and doesn’t let anything kill his spirit😢 I really hope he becomes successful and rich in life cause he honestly deserves it.

    This was truly such a beautiful moment ! This guy, literally said, “when GOD comes to you, he can come in anyway and he sent you”. I wish there was a way to start a fund for him and get him out of there.
