Default Re: What is the most important lesson you would teach a young person?

Always give money to street musicians because they make the world a happier place,

and ... (here comes the controversial part)

always give money to beggars. I know, I know. They're just going to get drunk, or you are just enabling, or a hundred other reasons why I shouldn't do it.

But I was taught not to judge someone else until I had walked a mile in their shoes. All part of the "do unto others ...".
