A man was driving his car,
when he saw an old lady, stranded on the side of the road. He saw that
she needed help. So he stopped his Pontiac near
her Mercedes and got out.
He smiled, while he was approaching her, still she was worried, as
nobody had stopped for hours. Moreover, he did not look safe, as his
appearance
was so poor and shabby. He could see, how frightened she was, so he
tried to calm her: „ I‘m here to help you, don‘t worry. My name is Bryan
Anderson“.
The tire was flat, so he had to crawl under the car. While changing the tire, he got dirty and his hands were hurt.
When the job was done, she asked how much she owed him for his help.
Bryan smiled. He said: „If you really want to pay me back, the next
time you see someone,
who needs help, give that person the needed assistance. And think of
me“.
A the same evening, the lady stopped by a small cafe. That place looked
dingy. Then she saw a waitress, nearly eight months pregnant, wiping her
wet hear
with a towel. The waitress had a sweet friendly smile, although she had
spent on her feet the whole day.
The lady wondered, how someone, who has so little, can be so kind and giving to a strange. Then she remembered Bryan.
The lady had finished her meal and paid with a hundred dollar bill. The
waitress went to get change and when she came back, the lady was gone.
She left a note
on the napkin: „You don‘t own me anything. Somebody once helped me, just
like now I‘m helping you. If you really want to pay me back, do not let
this chain of
love end with you“. The waitress found four more one hundred bills under
the napkin.
That night the waitress came home earlier. She was thinking about the
lady and the money she left. She was wondering, how the lady could know,
how much she and
her husband needed it? Especially now, when the baby will soon arrive.
She knew, that her husband worried about that, so she was glad to tell
him good news.
Then she kissed him and whispered „Now everything will be all right. I
love you, Bryan Anderson“.
