This video has a great message. This reminded me of when I first came to Australia and I had no money. I was busking in a tunnel that led to a train station and I was very unsuccessful. I only knew Redemption Song and Rivers of Babylon and so I kept repeating those over and over! There was another busker who had the unkempt and raggedy look of homelessness performing about 50 or so metres away from me. He was playing an old violin and doing mildly better than I was. He kept looking over at me with a look of what I thought was contempt. After about 2 hours of busking this man picks up his violin and case and walks over to me. I was ready for a fight. He smiled at me with a big gap heavy grin, emptied out his violin case of all his earnings, and dropped his money in my hat. I was too stunned to protest at first but when I did he waved me off and told me to accept the gift. Ill never forget that simple, yet grand gesture of love and kindness from a complete stranger. - Nate Hamon
