The Pigeon Feeder (2016)Oil painting by Emma Cownie

I was struck by this man, who had been sleeping rough, taking so much care to feed some pigeons in the inner city area of Swansea, Wales. Although he had very little himself, he still spent whatever money he did have on bread to feed these pigeons.
It shows we all need to care, even if we are not being that well cared for ourselves.
We all need to look after someone or something. It is a fundamental part of being human.
