Time for repentance
Well I certainly have been a slacker in regards to contributing to this blog. But I am going to contribute now! Yesterday I was driving to a friends house and I was just about to turn off of the freeway ramp onto the street when I saw a man walking up from the freeway. I quickly thought back an d remembered seeing a car with it's hood up a little ways back on the freeway. My first reaction was "well that sucks for him." But i had this feeling that I should go over and see if he needed a ride. I don't make it a habit of offering rides to strangers but I felt like I should. However, I didn't listen to the feeling and I turned to go towards my friends house. But the feeling came back and I turned the car around and offered him a ride. He seemed a little reluctant at first but said yes and thanked me. He asked my if I could take him north to the next freeway exit and I said yes. He didn't talk much but he told me that his wife was in the emergency room and that on his way there he car had started over-heating. He had ignored it because he was in a hurry to get to the hospital, but the car didn't make it. I drove him to the hospital and dropped him off there. I didn't find out why his wife was in the emergency room, but he said that he was greatful for my help.
