On a smaller scale, the people who annoy me are the ones who cry poor but are still driving their Hummers, still taking the family to Europe every summer and can be found at five star restaurants every Saturday night.

Sadly, I know way too many people like this. menopausal mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09058933838070665032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-346136223430272580.post-14964140730888186742014-02-21T17:22:44.045-05:002014-02-21T17:22:44.045-05:00Holy Hell, that's horrible.

When our nephew was a senior in high school, she was collecting money for him to go to Australia for a soccer camp (WTF?!) ... I never believed it would happen, but lots of businesses did and donated $$ to him / them. Biggest non-shock of my life, things "didn't work out" and he didn't go. In a (not) surprising turn of events, ex-sister-in-law got a new car later that month. I was fuming ... and you can bet your sweet ass I said something about that one. Whenever she cries poor (which is ALLLLL the time), I don't believe her.

The fake blind guy, the kids selling candy for fake team gear, the fake nuns begging for donations. It has gotten to the point where I just ignore them all.

But I get you too Teri - and I hate doubting. You have to listen to your heart and give when you can, trusting God will guide your hand at the right time. I totally get this, I'm sure everyone knows a family who just seems to get "all the breaks". I just am thankful that I hear myself telling the kids "you can only control YOUR words, actions, and reactions."

When I see shit like this, and know that people are being taken advantage of, it makes me second guess giving the NEXT time I see someone in need asking for a hand.

It is not up to me to decide how someone uses my gift. Don't get me wrong, I get angry and disappointed when I learn of this type of abuse/preying on tender people's generosity. God (yes He and I talk daily and thank Him bc I'm a big ole sinner) has told me that it's not about the other person when I give. It's about me loving and caring and honoring Him and myself. God is big enough to deal with the jerkos so I don't have to. Keep up the giving and sharing, Teri. The world needs more people like you.
