THE BEGGAR WITH A HEART OF GOLD

98 year old dobri dobrev, a man who lost most of his hearing in the second world war, has spent decades traveling 25 kilometers by foot every day for decades, decked in his homemade clothes and leather shoes, from his village to the city of sofia, where he spends the day begging for money.

A well recognized fixture around several of the city’s churches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that this man, who lives entirely off his state pension of 80 euros, has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros — towards the restoration of decaying bulgarian monasteries and churches, as well as the utility bills of orphanages.

KINDNESS IS AN SELFLESS ACT FOR HAPPINESS OF OTHERS..

Most people give donations because of selfish reasons -
1. Some give donations, because they feel "superior" and more wealthy.
2. Some give donations to earn "good karma".
3. Some give it because some priest, maulana or pundit has suggested doing so will give them what they want.
4. Some give just to show-off to others "how kind hearted they are".

Only a handful people give donations with selfless attitude.
Only a handful people do selfless acts for happiness of others.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD LET A LITTLE BIT OF DOBRI DOBREV INTO YOUR HEART.
