Many years ago I drove a taxi for extra money mainly from the downtown to the 36 , beside the Greenwood Racetrack..
Each time a taxi drove up to the station, many kids would run along the 37 . One 38 kid would open the passenger door and say, “ 39 , sir.” The passenger would always say thanks and give the kid a 40 . It was a routine that everybody knew.
One day I noticed a boy, who was 41 than most of them but was pushed away by even the smallest kid. He never pushed back. 42 , he would even step aside when others pushed forward. But he never 43 .
Then as I was 44 to the sidewalk, all the other kids were running after a taxi 45 mine. They didn’t notice mine.
The boy saw me and walked toward my taxi. As I pulled up I made sure that I stopped in a 46 with the passenger door right beside him. He 47 the passenger door and said, “Good luck at the track, sir.”
48 , the man did not tip him a quarter. Instead he 49 , “Get out of my way!” He pushed him aside so 50 that the boy fell down and was badly hurt. I got out of my car quickly, 51 find that the man disappeared in the crowd.
So I looked for the kid. I decided to give him $20 for all his 52 . But he was far up ahead, walking out of the station 53 . 54 , I never saw him again. I’d like to find him and tell him that if only he had stuck around a little longer I would have given him a whole $20.
I learned an important lesson from the boy. When things seem so 55 that you are ready to give up, that is the time when things are most likely to turn around for you.
