What goes around comes around
One day a man saw an old lady on the side of the road. He could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out.
Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn't look safe; he looked poor and hungry.
He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt.
He said, "I'm here to help you, ma'am. Why don't you wait in the car where it's warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson."
Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Bryan crawled under the car. The ground was wet and cold but soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt.
As he was finishing his work, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. She couldn't thank him enough for coming to help her.
The lady asked how much she owed him. But Bryan just smiled. This was not a job to him. This was helping someone in need. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance they needed, and Bryan added, "And think of me."
He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home.
A few miles down the road the old lady saw a small cafe. She went inside to eat something and to have a warm drink. The waitress came over and brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She had a sweet smile. The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a stranger. Then she remembered Bryan.
After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred dollar bill. The
waitress quickly went to get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the old lady
went away. The waitress wondered where the lady could be. Then she noticed
something written on the napkin.
There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote: "You don't
owe me anything. I have been there too. Somebody once helped me out, the
way I'm helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do
not let this chain of love end with you."
Under the napkin were four more $100 bills.
That night when she got home from work and climbed into bed, she was
thinking about the money and what the lady had written. How could the lady
have known how much she and her husband needed it?
