What Would You Do If...

    While watching The Magic Of Belle Isle  a scene stood out. One of the main characters, who was a young girl, was in a used bookstore where she came across a book written by her new neighbor, an author of western novels, played by Morgan Freeman. When she went to pay the store clerk informed her it was on sale because the last page was gone, someone had ripped it out. This had me pondering:

Quarter Anyone?

    I went to the library a couple days ago and there were books for sale. As I was looking through them, a young man approached the table of books as well. He was in his late teens or early twenties and spotted an adult dinosaur book with a cool, shiny graphic cover.He asked me how much the books were and I told him a quarter a piece. I saw him reach into his pockets and then said, "I don't even have a quarter on me." He seemed sad. I then said, "I have a quarter for you." I reached into the change part of my wallet and gave him a shiny quarter. He was speechless...over a quarter.

    He said, " I don't even know you."  I replied , "I love to read and it's only a quarter, just pass it on when you can." He thanked me again and went to pay for the book. Afterwards, he kept looking back at me, shaking his head in disbelief at my act of generosity it seemed. Sometimes we think to help someone it has to be a big act when smaller ones add up just as well.
