Sometimes it may take days, weeks or even years before one reaps the benefit of their giving. Most times the benefits don't come in the same channel with which we gave. But if we give cheerfully, we must reap a reward. This time, my reward came very quick. I took a bike from FUTO to Obinze junction. I was supposed to pay the guy N200. As we journeyed I realised he was dangerously over speeding. I cautioned him. I was the only passenger. He told me he was in a hurry to make N10000 to have his family discharged from the hospital. His wife had delivered a baby boy. I believed him. I then directed him to an ECO BANK ATM where I withdrew and handed over 6K to him. He already had 4K. The guy thought he had seen an angel. He thanked me and kept looking at me as I crossed the express and took a bus to PH. That was around 3 pm. The very next day, around 8 am, a senior colleague of mine.gave me N10000. I couldn't believe my eyes as I experienced this quick reward. I told my senior colleague what transpired the previous day. Indeed, if we give cheerfully, we must reap a reward. It's a law. U may share yours, if any. This is an indelible experience. |

Op ur story is quite touching and worth emulating. You not only gave d man money bt u probably saved his life. Imagine the guy running @ high speed n having an accident in d process? I do give out a lot myself and Am gonna improve on it further. I can't stand a watch someone suffering wen I v d capability to help. |

ramdris:We are here to touch lives in our own little ways. And one of the ways we do that is through cheerful giving. We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give......Winston Churchill |
