#35 I approached a store and outside on the ground was an old Japanese man begging.  Instead of giving him money, I invited him for lunch.  He told of how his daughter died in a car accident and left two boys.  The man begs on the side to help the kids.  And then I drove him to his home.

#29 Last month, while I was out of town, someone broke into my place and stole my bicycle—that I ride a lot.  I lamented its loss on a local forum I participate in…. and a gentleman contacted me to say he had “an old bike” I could have.  It was old, but in immaculate working order. THANK YOU!

#15 This year I planted a garden in my curb strip to help out my less fortunate neighbors. At the end of the summer, a man stoped by and told me that he and his wife lost their jobs and my garden was their only sorce for fresh vegitables. I’m now trying to get funding for a large community garden.
