help myself with helping people help themselves

Remember when I told you in the last 2 post before this, about the lady that selling Big Issue magazines? Well, I saw her again a few days ago. I was walking back to the bus station from my work place and there she was, selling the magazines at the same spot when I saw her before. As my promise before, I bought a magazine from her. She was so happy when I told her that I want to buy the magazine. She said to me, "I love you too!". Maybe that 5 bucks will really help her. Well, it's not much but I hope it will.
I helped her help herself. No, I actually helped myself too, despite of helping that lady is a right or wrong thing, despite of what people thought about me that time. I stopped the argument inside my head and I did the thing that makes me feel comfortable inside. And the most important thing is I did what myself wanted to do.
