One day when I was going to the grocery, I little boy approach me. He was so dirty and at one look you will know that he was a beggar. He asked for food. That time I was just going to buy grocery so I told him to wait for me. I don't finished buying my items because I know that it will take time. I buy food for the boy first. Then when I saw him, I gave the food to him. in return he smiled and thanked me. By that time I felt so good and blessed because I helped someone who is in need. I still helping beggars when i passed them. Because I think that they need any small thing that I will give them.

I thought the Fabulous Fiver Fairy story was so lovely. It's so nice to do something selfless for other people - and so rare these days. I live in London where I regularly have to witness how rude people can be - from not giving up their seats to pregnant women to not rushing to help when someone has fallen off their bike. As Fabulous proved, it doesn't take much to make someone's day and it's these little things that count.

One Christmas I was feeling particularly bad about the fact that I was about to head home to a loving family, a big roast turkey and loads of pressies, when hundreds spend the festive period on the streets. So I took some of my boyfriend's old clothes and gave them to the homeless man who sits on the subway under London Bridge. He was so pleased – and it makes me smile to think he's probably the only homeless man in London who now wears a cashmere jumper!
