Suprised
Morning all - I wanted to share a quick story with you.
Last sunday a young man and his girlfriend broke down outside my property, and I went over to see if there was anything that I could do.
Turns out - he ran out of fuel. So I took him down to get some gas and he was having issues with his card. "I know what you are thinking - conveniently" anyway I paid for the gas and we got them back on the road.
I said to the young man, you know where I live, come drop off the cash. A few days went by, and to my surprise. He knocked on my door and handed me the cash.
All I have to say to this young man, Well Done - you are a credit to your family.
Lest we forget...
