Had a nice thing happen on my second last time to the dump. I went and gave a bag of apartment things to a woman who lives on the edge of the garbage in the swamp area with her husband and one armed little boy. There was a group of 6 people sitting outside her home. We talked for a bit. One of the men started to speak to me in Thai. I thought at first he was asking me for money but realized that was not the case when I tried to give him some and then he told me “No its ok, not need it”. He then spoke to me for about 2 minutes. His accent was rather heavy but eventually I realized he was thanking me. He knew I was leaving that day and simply thanking me. Thanking me for all the work I had done in the dump. He was very sincere in his thanks, very honest. It was beautiful and rather moving. I patted him on the shoulder and said thank you.
