Well I guess a little more competition on the road .
Copper Head,
This is kind a like the pay it forward thing and I commend you for what you did. You made a new friend and perhaps a contact that you will benefit from in the future. There's been time where people have helped me out of kindness when I was in a pinch. Many times I offered to pay for there time/efforts etc. and was told no. One guy specifically told me after he gave me a couple gallons of gas was that would not accept payment but all he wanted was for me to help someone else out in the future, that was his payment. This was over 20 years ago and I've helped people since then and tell them exactly the same thing if they offer to pay me for my time. 5, 10 or 30 minutes of kindness given can make most peoples day. Just think of how the world could be if more of us would do this.
So I'm going to challenge every SMF member and visitor that reads this post to do the same. Take the time to do something for some one, share the message and see what comes back, you'll be amazed. Lets see if we all can plant more of Copper Heads "Seeds of Kindness"
