Bottles and Cans
Every week, my family uses several cans and bottles. There is a recycling center less than half a mile from my house but it is time consuming to sort the cans and bottles and to take them to the center. So every week, I throw them in a bin just outside my back door. Sunday is trash night and we get any where from 5-20 people looking for cans and bottles at our curb. A few months back, I started putting bags of cans and bottles on top of my cans. The first person to come along got the bags and did not have to dig through my yucky trash. Then about a month ago, I decided I would save them up for a really long time and cash them in myself. I had bags and bags accumulated. I was in my garage gathering things to donate to charity when I saw a man pushing a cart going through peoples trash looking for recyclables. He looked homeless. His clothes were tattered and he was elderly. He had a limp. I ran into my yard and gathered all of the bags (5 HUGE garbage bags full). I ran after him in the street and caught up. He looked like he was going to cry. My cans and bottles made a difference to that man. Yeah, maybe it was just a few bucks but that might have been a loaf of bread for his family. So I plan to keep saving the cans and bottles and giving them to someone who can use the money. |
