Reaching Out

BY NICK SOWELL


Yesterday afternoon while at the gas station I was approached by a middle-aged homeless lady. She did not want money or food; she just wanted to know how long it would take to walk to Addison.

Here was a woman in real need, not asking for money, and basically on the edge of crying. As any decent person should do, I gave her cab money to get to Addison. It just reminded me to always be giving, loving, and caring for my fellow man. It brought to mind how small my problems are in comparison to others and how we must constantly reach out to others no matter the circumstances.
