Feeding Poor Street Kids & Double Amputee @ Phnom Penh Cambodia

Hey everyone, I'm out again feeding people again, this time street kids and a double amputee in Phnom Penh Cambodia near the Russian Market. Cambodia has one of the world's highest concentration of amputees due to all the left over land mines from several wars and is still one of the most heavily mined countries in the world (140 land mines per square mile according to UNICEF). This double amputee was sorting through a bag of garbage and caught my curiosity. He had a single prosthetic arm with a thin metal rod attached to it that he used to open things. What he was looking for? The bag was full of waste from the market so was he looking for food? I love helping these kinds of people. When he looked through a Styrofoam takeout container, I asked if he wanted food. He said yes and took me to a nearby fried rice stall around the corner. He had a nice bag, seemed reasonably well dressed, and had a hat, and didn't seem like the typical homeless or poor person who lived on the street so it confused me why he was sorting through rubbish. I was hoping he could sit and eat with me so we could talk but he had ordered take out. It didn't occur to me, but with no hands, how could he eat? I figured he must have someone taking care of him. At this point, a few street kids came over. I thought they might just be curious but I offered them food as well. A nice lady who was there with her son helped me communicate. After asking, the kids said they would share 2 plates, each costing 9000 Riels. The lady was very nice but she had to go to the hospital to take care of a family member. The two street girls finished their plates, which made me happy, but the boy barely ate half. He packed the rest, which also made me happy. They were very camera friendly. When they started doing that Asian pose, I showed them how to do the Korean Sa-Rang-Hae thingie. After they ate, they went to another stall to get more free food. I figured they would give it to their parents. Maybe the rice dish I got them wasn't necessary. They didn't look starving or that hungry but I wanted to help out that night anyways. When they left, they said "I love you" which surprised me since they probably only know a dozen words. **Bless whoever taught them that. The owners of the rice porridge place were very pleasant so I decided to eat there, and to my surprise, their rice porridge was one of the best things I had in Cambodia! I would later go on to eat there almost every other night. I will definately stop by when I'm there again. The owner's daughter came and said hi to me. Apparently, they give free food to street kids on the regular, which impressed me even more. The daughter asked if I was Christian, and was excited to share that she was Christian too and went to a Christian school. Her joy was so overflowing that it felt like a spiritual meeting and a blessing of sorts. It turns out, she is the only Christian in her family. The rest are Buddhist. That reminded me of my extended family who are Buddhist or Christian. Anyways, after hearing how the people of Cambodia have suffered so much, I'm glad to meet nice helpful people injecting new life. Thank you and may peace be with you.
