There were not a thousand people
The loaves were Kashi bars
But two souls were enough
To make a parable alive
My scheduled transportation
Was woefully behind
I feared I’d never make it
For my appointment time
The Senior Transportation
Called my doctor to report
Their snarled-up situation
With a promise I’d get there
My driver finally showed
I hopped in and we sped off
I arrived there the very time
My appointment was to end
When Dan my driver dropped me off
He said with warmth and cheer
Now he could get some lunch
And all because of me
My doctor’s visit over
Dan came to take me home
Puzzled I inquired what he had for lunch
He said he’d bought a drink
The one dollar contribution
Passengers hand over for our rides
Could not have bought a proper meal
Surely Dan was hungry still
My purse contained two Kashi bars
A snack I carry “just in case”
With great delight shared by us both
I put them in Dan’s hands.
I’ve long made monetary gifts
To feed the hungry everywhere
No gift touched my soul like this
And paid me back a thousand-fold

This was wonderful.
Yea to the service for calling your doctor’s office, yea to Dan for being such an amenable sort and yea to you for sharing your snack.
Life and the world are that more beautiful with people like you in it.
Thanks for your affirmation, Dale. It feels good to be heard. ❤

That was a lovely and very welcomed gift, Ina, and I’m sure Ben will remember it too for many years to come.
God bless and all good wishes,
Eric
Thank you, Eric. God bless you.
This is beautiful. Your generosity blessed not only him but me this morning as I read your words.
Thank you, Kris. I’m glad it blessed you.
A wonderful way you experienced and have told the joy and power of multiplied blessings.
Thank you. It really moved me.
Little acts of kindness will eventually save our civilization – once we all learn how to do spontaneously and often! Nice job Ina.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I do believe the small acts will always appear.
