The people in the village were real poor, so none of the children had any toys.
But this one little boy had gotten an old enema bag and filled it with rocks,
and he would go around and whap the other children across the face with it.
Man, I think my heart almost broke. Later the boy came up and offered to give
me the toy. This was too much! I reached out my hand, but then he ran away. I
chased him down and took the enema bag. He cried a little, but that's the way
of these people.
