Lunch with Street Kids
Copán Ruinas
With my meager Spanish, I thwarted this street kid from selling me shit. But when she turned to walk away I asked if she was hungry. She responded yes. I immediately asked her to join me for lunch. I bought her a meal. Her name was Cecilia, she is 9 years old. Her 4 year old sister came out to share in the meal also. I bought them another to go meal for dinner and gave them my water.
The whole incident made me happy and sad at the same time. Happy because I was able to give them a nice meal. Sad because I could only change their day.
