Learning a Lesson From the Universe
My friends and I had just went to a concert and stopped to get gas. A man came up to our car and asked us for some change. He was in pretty rough shape. All of my friends said they didn’t have any money (which was a lie). I got out of the car (I was pumping the gas) and gave him five dollars.
I had about fifty on me. He thanked me and walked away. When I got back in the car my friends said that I shouldn’t have given him any money. That he was just going to use it to buy drugs. I said they were probably right and that was the end of it.
The concert was in a new city to us so we decided to explore a bit. We started driving around the city.
About twenty minutes later we drove past a Mc Donalds. I saw the same man walk out of the store with a burger in his hand and a bag in the other. (it looked like it had other burgers in it).
It was nice to see that he used the money for something good. It was like the universe was teaching me a lesson, telling me to do the right thing regardless of what other people may say. I wish I had given him more money though… ProtrudedDemand
