In a time when things seem so bad..... This a.m., I stopped for gas and an elderly gentleman was pumping gas. Another man began talking to him and it was discovered that he was on the way to the hospital to visit his wife. He put $5 gas in the tank. The other man asked if that was enough gas to get to the hospital and back. He replied that it was all the money he had. The other gentleman added another $20 of gas. Whatever you call your "God", I hope you all experience LOVE in some way or another today. I watched it.

If we see with our heart, we'd realize, love is really all around! Take a second to see... Thanks for the proof baby, and the thought.

That was very wonderful of that man to help the other one. I also hope that everyone will do something good today also. We have a wonderful God and he is always showing the good in everyone.

I just wish more people would take the time to do something that comes from their heart. I know times are hard, but some people have it rougher than you do. That person might not could have afforded to give that extra $20. But it didn't matter cause someone else needed it more than him. Great story. Thank you for sharing.

It is things like that, that brings a smile to your face when you see it or even hear about it.

I call it the "Sacrifice of Love". You don't actually have to love the person, but by having the love of humankind in your heart makes people do good things for others, unselfishly. Kudos to that guy..

You never know when an Angel is going to touch your life, or when you are the Angel that touches another's. Being a witness to it is just as good too.
