In December of 2002, while driving to work, I came across an older man broke down on the side of the road. “Ain’t nobody stopping for an old black man in the suburbs tonight” was his statement to me. I drove him to a gas station, bought him some gas, and got his truck started. He reached for his wallet, but I refused to take his money. He said, “Thank you, young man. I hope God brings good things upon you.” I then went directly to a convenient store to get a soda and a few instant scratch lottery tickets. The store clerk pointed out a $5.00 ticket that he thought was lucky. He had just sold three to another customer, but that customer hadn’t won. The first ticket I scratched was a $25,000.00 winner! If I hadn’t stopped to help the stranded motorist, I would have purchased the non-winning ticket. How’s that for Karma…?
