DRIVING THOUGHTS
Acts of kindness should always make it to the news especially if it comes from people who do not have much to share.
One of them comes from a woman named Carol, from Bacolod City, who gathers food scraps to feed her pigs, who are not actually hers but are owned by neighbors. She earns from her share of the profit after the pigs are fattened and sold.
Six months ago, Carol would go to the usual houses to collect food scraps with an old pedicab whose usefulness had been severely limited by age. The seat had collapsed and the alignment of the tires had made the pedicab only good to use as a carriage for its load.
