Beggars
A beggar is a person who begs for their sustenance; but a person who begs thus may not be a beggar. A beggar is a person who is down and out, down on their fortune and out of resources, and unable to continue living without help . A beggar thus ultimately resorts against suicide to forsaking their dignity and begin begging to survive, by soliciting alms from others who are kind enough. When abject poverty befalls the unfortunates, how else do they avoid slipping into beggary.
Being a beggar is thus not an occupation of choice; it is also not conceivable that anyone wants to be a beggar. A person has to be at their wits end to begin begging against their inherent righteousness. A quote from an old Japanese proverb, "It is a beggar's pride that he is not a thief." However confidence tricksters often infiltrate the grounds of beggars. They act like beggars and prey on the unsuspecting kind people. These confidence tricksters are not difficult to identify; their accoutrement and demeanor do give them away. Other tell-tale signs are their personal hygiene, gait and conduct. Engaging them in conversation can be the last resort .
Giving alms to a beggar is a virtuous act, unwittingly giving alms to a conman lends support to a social parasite, a devious one.
