  One day a man saw an old lady standing by her expensive car, clearly in need of help.So he stopped his old truck and got out.Although he was smiling, the old lady was worried.Was he gong to hurt her? He didn’t look safe.

  The man could see that she was frightened, so in his friendliest voice he said, “I’m here to help you, madam.Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.” Bryan quickly fixed the car and the lady thanked him.Then she asked how much she should pay him.

  But Bryan wanted no money.He was just giving a hand to someone in trouble.This was normal for him.He said, “If you really want to repay me, next time you see someone in need, help them and think of me.”

  After saying goodbye, the lady continued down the road until she reached a small café where she decided to stop for something to eat.As the pretty waitress took her order, the lady noticed she was nearly eight months pregnant(怀孕).Although the waitress looked tired she was very kind.As the lady was going to pay the $10 bill she remembered Bryan’s words.

  She paid with a hundred-dollar bill.But when the waitress returned with the change the lady was gone.On the table she saw a small note.There ware tears in her eyes when she read it:“Somebody once helped me the way I’m helping you.If you want to pay me back, continue being kind to others.” Under the note were nine more $100 bills.
