This is silly, I know.
This past Christmas was my first in years when I couldn't go out with hampers for street folk.
Too much debt.
And yet, the person who left us posted about doing *such* good deeds at Xmas.
And I'll never know how much truth there was in that. Did this person help people closer to home? Or was their world-grief after donating a lie?
At the time, I was comforted by the thought that someone else was helping even when I couldn't.
That comfort feels very, very bitter now.
