Putting your money where your mouth is

The Nabuntu-Zulu say, "A person is a person through other people." And then they live it.I was listening to BookTV- Jimmy Carter's grandson was talking about a book he wrote about being in the Peace Corps in South Africa. He described the above concept with a couple of stories- one was how the director of the school where he was working had just finished building a new house. An old, homeless man noticed this, and came to the door and asked for some food. They took him in and he lived with them until his death.
