    But you do what feels right, because it’s usually the correct choice.

    And I think that we should actively try to get past judgment…

    Understand that, sure, the homeless might spend money on booze or drugs, but that is their business, and that by extending opportunities to them, we are giving them an opprortunity to turn their lives around… Maybe they will someday fully take it.

    I would also say that, instead of focusing on giving money to the homeless, it could be better to give sufficiently to worthwhile charities and then you would feel less guilty if/when yuo do end up not having anything for some street beggars.

    My country of residence has nearly eliminated homelessness at this point so it is not a big issue for me.
