I saw Pay It
Forward about a year ago and ever since i saw that movie I have
been thinking of Paying it forward ever since.
I'm 18 years old just graduated from highschool and I think that
Pay It
Forward was one of the best movies ever made. I hope that when people
see
that movie they will think about Paying It Forward.
A week ago we were out on a peaceful boat ride...so we thought it
was
peaceful. We weren't even 20 minutes into the ride before my aunts
boat
started to smoke. The first thing that we did was look to see if
there was
a fire.. We heard some crackling.. the first thing I thought about
was oh my
god the boat is going to blow up. I got really scared but I stayed
calm.
My aunt blew the horn on the boat 5 times but no one came to help
us. Then
finally this boat came over and asked us if we needed some help..
Of course
we did. They hooked us up to there boat and pulled us back to shore.
My
aunt pulled out a $20 bill and tried to hand it to the man. But
he shook
his head and said just pay if forward. And told us a story about
some one
helping him so he was just paying it forward. I would just like
to thank
him so much for his help. If he wouldn't have helped us who knows
what would
have
happened. We didn't catch his name. I just wanted to share that
story with
someone else.
