It was not a sunny day. The traffic had slowed down after the usual rush hour. A group of Latino volunteers were collecting donations for the homeless. They were a group of energetic, but gentle souls who roamed these American streets looking for helping hands.
 
When some people smile or laugh, they bring out the inner sun in you. That’s what they did to me. The streets with tall office building towering above looked bleak, but these humble faces brought rays of kindness to some darkest corners of the city.
 
Most of them talked in Spanish only. One of the guys, who wasn’t wearing a Santa hat, acted like the group leader or guide. He knew the streets and the joints where cocktails and cigars were being consumed and top dollars might change hands in a matter of seconds.
 
With kids in tow, they were not out in the cold looking for “deals” of some useless products and gadgets. They gave me an instant impression that they had no need to “fake a holiday” for themselves or pretend and lie in awkward conversations. For me, they were the real Santas carrying big garbage bags in order to comfort and help those who needed the most.
