Good deed, the holy of Bailovo

This good deed. He was 98 years old, he is a veteran of the Second World War.




He lives 10 kilometers from Bulgarian capital Sofia. Every day he goes walking the 10 kilometers to beg.



What is surprising is that Dobrev asks not for himself. He lives on a pension of 80 euros (or approximately US $ 100).



All the money that he was able to gather over the last years (about 40 thousand euros or 50 thousand dollars), he donated to children's homes, so that they can pay their bills.



Children also throw their coins into his tin box and he is always touching their thanks.



Some call it the "holy of Bailovo" - a place where good is born. Here, everyone loves him and try to take care of him. Most people turn to him to "dyado good" ("Grandpa good"), he became a kind of symbol of goodness and self-sacrifice.



So if anyone needs an example to follow, you can hardly find a better candidacy. Maybe you will never become the same as that person. But you can at least try. And if we both try to follow his example, then perhaps looking at us, somebody else wants to follow us. And who knows, maybe we will be able to start a chain reaction of good, and this world will be much better.
