Oswald Utz: Last Wednesday. I wanted to ask a passerby on the street for help. (Could you put my documents in the bag on the backside of my wheel chair?). When I said: “Sorry...” he interrupted me and said: “I do not have any money" I answered: "But I do" Afterwards we had a nice conversation and he helped me.
