Individuals Paying It Forward |
 |
| I
just watched the movie for the 1st time tonite. I thought it was a
great story. I don't know how long ago your book came out. And my
story doesn't start with someone telling me to pay it forward but
it is the same concept. In 98' I found out our furnace was bad. It
needed to be replaced. I had already lost my home to a fire in March
of 97'. We had just purchased a new home. We had no money for a new
furnace. No one would help. No churches no one. One day a man showed
up at my door. I have never seen him b4 or after. He gave me a check
for the amount of money I need to get the natural gas brought into
my home $200.00. All he said was someday I do something for someone
else. I met this woman online. We had been chatting for months. She
came into hard times. Needed money for her boys for x-mas. I sent
her $150.00 (all that I could afford). I just told her someday to
do something for someone else. Then this past year a close friend
of mine was down on her luck. And needed money to get heat in her
home. I went to the fuel place and paid for her to get $100.00 worth
of propane. I told her the same thing. Just do something for someone
else. So I guess I have one more to go. And I hope I don't stop there.
I think it is a great idea. And I hope everone does it for at least
one person.
Thanks, |
