Noble charity

A beggar came to my door and asked my mother for money. The beggar was very poor. His right hand and his whole arm were broken off, and the empty sleeves were dangling, which made people uncomfortable to look at. I thought my mother would be generous, but my mother pointed to a pile of bricks in front of the door and said to the beggar, "Please help me carry this pile of bricks to the back of the house."
