I've been living here for about 6 months as an individual (Oak Wood.) Everything has been great so far. Mercedes, the property manager, is consistent. Therefore, I always know what to expect going into the office, and that's a good feeling.

That being said, every once in a while there's a homeless man going through the trash outside my apartment. That's awkward. But, to be honest, I'd probably be an explorer if I was homeless too.

Anytime I throw away a pizza box, I be sure to leave the last slice in there; You never know - that kind of generosity could come back around to me one day, when I find myself in a hungry sort-a-way.

I'm not sure if this is enabling a bad habit though. I'm not a very educated person, you see?

I just try to do my best...

Perhaps I should take the advice of that age old adage - "Give a man a slice, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to bake a great pie, and he'll have the skills to feed himself for a lifetime."

Does that mean I should take him to big slice and show him how the chefs make the pizza?

But then again, that's contradictory to another fundamental philosophy - "You can't teach an old dog new tricks."

I guess I'm just at loss with this problem.

Any advice?
