   Boy, did he take a chance! It’s wonderful that it turned out well for him and the teen-ager; he may have helped “turn-around” the teen-ager.

   That story really hit right to my heart & goes to the lesson Jesus taught us so eloquently …by someone who wants to take your undershirt (tunic) to let him have also your coat and if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles…..we are to be kind & to love one another, especially in today’s society. Thank you Julio for reminding us through your experience how we should act in kindness to everyone & through offering him a meal I do believe you may have turned that young man’s heart - You did what Jesus would have done….Thank you so much

   Diane and Ida: Right, sometimes taking a chance is the right thing to do. Not every situation warrants it, but then, maybe every situation does.

   The cynical part of me thinks that I’d have to be the one who takes the chance and gets knifed. But, if more people took the chance fewer would get knifed (I think).

   Glad it brightened your day like it did mine.
