41 - Bum

Full transcript here 👋 Hey, good morning, good afternoon, good evening. This is your life. This is your chance. Listen. The word for today is bum, and it’s time to lay this word to rest. [funeral music] People who are homeless or look rough are not bums; they are people. I recently watched the film mid90s, and it had a short scene where the kids are talking to a homeless person. They treat him with dignity, and it’s a good reminder of the humanity in every person. They don’t seem to see him as a bum. Today’s concrete challenge is to call a homeless shelter or organization that works with homeless people in your area and ask them what you can do to help. Some commonly needed items are warm socks and coats and toys for homeless children, but they can tell you specifically what people in your area need. Use the next few minutes of this podcast to get it done. I’ll keep the music playing while you look up the number. Let me know if this made a difference in your day by leaving a comment in your podcast app or at concrete.win/today. Check back tomorrow for a new challenge. Until then.
