What goes around... comes around!!

Once a man was driving by a road when he saw an old lady, stranded on side of the road. It was evening time; the light was dim; still, he could see that she needed help.

So he pulled up his car in front of her Mercedes and got out of his car. Then he approached her.

The old woman got a little worried as no one had stopped to help her for the last hour and now this man was approaching her with a smile on his face. She got worried if he would hurt her because he looked poor and hungry.

He could see that she was frightened and knew how she felt.

He said, "I am here to help you, mam. My name is Bryan Anderson."

The old woman was scared, still told him about the flat tyre of her car.

He said, "Mam, It's chilly outside, why don't you wait in the car where it's warm while I change it."

Saying this, Bryan crawled under the car and started to change tyre. Soon tyre was changed. As he was finishing up, she rolled down her car window and began to talk to him.

She said that she was from a faraway place and was passing by that place and thanked him enough for coming to her aid. Bryan just smiled as he closed her car trunk after keeping back tools and flat tyre for her car.

The woman asked him, "How much should I pay you?"

Bryan never thought about being paid as this was not a job for him. He was just helping her in her need.

He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back then the next time she sees someone who needed help, she should give the personal assistance they needed. He continued, "And think of me at the time, think of it as payment for this deed."

He waited until she started her car and drove off. He also headed home then.

A few miles down the road, the lady saw a small cafe. She stopped there and went in to grab a bite and relax a bit before the last leg of her trip.

When she was seated, a waitress came over and bought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. Lady noticed that waitress was nearly eight months pregnant but still was working hard there with a smile on her face.

She wondered how someone who had so little could be so caring and giving to a stranger and then she remembered Bryan.

After she finished her meal, she paid with hundred dollar bill. The waitress went inside to get change but before she came back, the old lady was gone.

While the waitress wondered where the lady could be, she noticed that something was written on the napkin.

There were tears in her eyes when she read what the old lady wrote: "You don't owe me anything. Someone once helped me out, the way I am helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do - Don't let this chain of love end with you."

And under the napkin were four more hundred dollar bills left for the waitress.

Later that night, when the waitress got home from work and jumped into her bed, she was thinking about money and what the lady had written.

She wondered how could have that lady known that she and her husband needed it. With the baby due next month, it was going to be hard for them but now things would be easier.

She knew that her husband was worried, as he lay sleeping next to her. She softly whispered in his ears, "Everything is going to be all right. I love you. Bryan Anderson."

Flash: What Goes Around, Comes Around. One of the best feelings in the world is giving. The positive energy is contagious. With just one act of kindness, you can inspire others to go out and plant seeds of happiness. Giving is good for you and your growth, personal/ professional, and some of the most successful people have tapped into the power of giving.

Moral: A small gesture of help can change your life forever. Be helpful to people around. Do not turn your backs on those who are in need. Life is more accurately measured by the lives you touch than the things you acquire.

"Only by giving are you able to receive more than you already have!!"
