Names and some images are changed to protect the identity of the girls

Peter Q

 

One of my many humbling experience occurred when we were accompanying the Sisters to Mae Sai market, at the border of Thailand and Myanmmar as things are cheaper there. While walking around, an old woman picked some of her vegetables and gave it to the Sisters, knowing that they are looking after the abandoned and abused girls.  I offered to pay for the goods but she was adamant not to take any – looking at her I was stunned and loss for words.

Truly humbled by this experience, I am reminded of the quote:

I learn to give not because I have many, but because I know exactly how it feels to have nothing.”
