I like writing about the good people I meet, because sometimes I think we forget that there are still genuinely good people among us.

I was taking in a taxi yesterday when the driver pulled aside to buy a drink from a street vendor...without missing a beat he turns to me big grin on his face and asks- "Yuh want something or wha?".  I returned the smile, but did not accept the drink.  My belly was full already!


What still amazes me about this encounter is the fact that this taxi driver was willing to buy me a drink that would have cost more than my fare.  What a kind act!

Now that is what giving is all about, you don't give simply because you see a direct return. Give because you want to be of help to someone.
