Just when I think I have problems

It was raining outside tonight and I was walking around
downtown after spending $26 on a crappy meal that
really wasn't very good.  I ended up running into a
homeless family.  The kids were age 2,4, and 10 and
they were all very sweet.  I took them to mcdonalds
and called all the homeless shelters but noone had room.
I ended up giving the youngest two a pair of gloves and
dropping them all off at the police station as that is where
the mother asked to go.  I didn't really know what else to do.
The contrast between them and me blowing $26 on a crappy
meal and coming home to a nice warm house significantly
larger than I really need is unsettling.  I'm not for sure what
the solution is but I'm going to start with selling my house.
