What Goes Around Comes Around.. by Nature8(m): 10:13pm On Oct 07, 2015
One day a man saw an old lady stranded on the
side of the road, but even in the dim light of day,
he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in
front of her Mercedes and got out. His Pontiac
was still sputtering when he approached her..


Even with the smile on his face, she was worried.
No one had stopped to help for the last hour or
so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look
safe, he looked poor and hungry. He could see
that she was frightened, standing out there in
the cold. He knew how she felt. It was those
chills which only fear can put in you. He said,
“I’m here to help you, ma’am. Why don’t you wait
in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my
name is Ifeanyi Obi.”.


Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old
lady, that was bad enough. Ifeanyi crawled under
the car looking for a place to put the jack,
skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was
able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty
and his hands hurt.
As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled
down the window and began to talk to him. She
told him that she was from St. Louis & was only
just passing through. She couldn't thank him
enough for coming to her aid..


Ifeanyi just smiled as he closed her trunk. The
lady ask how much she owed him. Any amount
would have been alright with her. She already
imagined all the awful things that could have
happened had he not stopped. Ifeanyi never
thought that twice about being paid. This was
not a job to him. That was helping someone in
need and God knows there were plenty, who had
given him a hand in the past. He had lived his
whole life that way and it never occurred to him
to act any other way. He told her that if she
really want to pay him back, the next time she
saw someone who needed help, she could give
that person the assistance they needed and
Ifeanyi added, "And think of me"..


He waited until she started her car and drove
off. It had been a cold and depressing day, but
he felt good as he headed for home,
disappearing into the twilight..


A few miles down the road, the lady saw a small
cafe. She went in to grab a bite to eat and take
the chill off before she made the last leg of her
trip home.
It was a dingy looking restaurant. Outside were
two old gas pumps. The whole scene was
unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over and
brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She
had a sweet smile, one that even being on her
feet the whole day couldn't erase. The lady
noticed the waitress was nearly eight months
pregnant, but she never let the strain and aches
change her attitude. The old lady wondered how
someone who had so little could be so giving to
a stranger. Then she remembered Ifeanyi..


After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a
hundred dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to
get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the old
lady had slipped right out the door. She was
gone by the time the waitress came back. The
waitress wondered where the lady could be, then
she noticed something written on the napkin.
There were tears in her eyes when she read what
the lady wrote: "You don't owe me anything, I
have been there too. Somebody once helped me
out, the way I'm helping you. If you really want
to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let
this chain of love end with you." Under the
napkin were twenty more $100 bills..


Well, there were tables to clear, sugar bowls to
fill and people to serve, but the waitress made it
through another day. That night when she got
home from work and climbed into bed, she was
thinking about the money and what the lady had
written. How could the lady had known how
much she and her husband needed? With the
baby due next month, it was going to be hard.
She knew how worried her husband was and as
he lay sleeping next to her, she gave him a soft
kiss and whispered soft and low, "Everything's
going to be all right. I love you, Ifeanyi Obi"..

Yes what goes around must surely comes around.

If u sow wickedness,u will surely reap wickedness.
If u sow selfishness,u will surely reap selfishness.

Be good to people when you are going up because you might meet them while going down.

It pays to be straight forward,faithful and sincere in everything u are doing,so it will nt come back to hurt you in the future.
