    Over the course of that ride, the anger slowly  4 . He mentioned he had read an article saying the  5  people are the ones that give, so he hoped he’d have more  6  to give in his life. I was starting to  7  being with him! We continued talking about why  8  is so beneficial both to the giver and the receiver and different ways to  9  it.

    As we arrived at my destination, I  10  my fare. But I pulled out an extra $20 and said, “Since we’ve been talking about giving this whole time, I wanted to share that  11  with you.

       The man turned toward me, tears in his eyes, and said, “Sir, I have a better  15 . You give that $20 to a  16  person around here and I’ll treat the next passenger with a  17  ride myself.”

    Wow. This man was 18  10 minutes ago. I got out and walked around trying to find someone who needed help  19  heading to my destination.
