NobodysPreference Br0thah's blog: "Today's Stories"

 	I'm a witness to the fact that; there is such a thing as, Unexpected Blessings. Let me explain.

I was facing a problem with being to pay Rent this month, and also having to handle another 

Financial Obligation next month. I collect Early Retirement Social Security Benefits, as I had to 

begin getting them because of problems when I was in Allegheny County. I won't go into what 

those problems were. Suffice it to say that, I had to begin collecting it to save my ass!

	However: 

 	Sometimes things just creep up on you at the most critical of times. I found myself wondering 

just how I was going to go about solving this Dilemma I was in. Yes, I even prayed about it. 

	Mind you, I'm by NO means the kind of person you would think of as 'Christian'. I'll be the first 

to readilly admit that I don't act like it; talk like it, or walk like it all the time. Rather, the opposite is true. 

Hardly ANY of the time.

	It's The Truth:

 	Then, out of the blue, a guy I know whom I see periodically just showed up at the house tonight. 

I'd not seen him in quite awhile, and to be honest, I was mighty glad to see him. I told him what was 

going on with me. 

	Then, he asked me: 

"How much do you need?"

"A hundred dollars." I'd said in response. I then went on to say I'd repay it within the next two months. 

	But, he said:

"I don't want it back. Just Pay It Forward. Someone will come into your life that will have A Need; 

and you'll know then, what to do, because it will be made known to you at that moment, what to do 

to Pay It Forward!"

 	So I say all of that, to simply say this:

 	We tell each other on here all the time, to: 'Be Kind To One Another, because you never know 

what someone else is going through, AT ANY given time.' This, I am most convinced now more than ever, 

is assuredly true. So, if someone has A Need To Be Met, if you're able, help him or her or them, 

to have that 

Need Fulfilled. It doesn't always of necessity, have to be Monetary either. A Kind Word. An Ear to Listen. 

Being Present just to show Support and Solidarity. Help with a Project. The list goes on. 

	You see; if we're going to talk about 'Loving One Another', then the very act of Paying It Forward, 

in and of itself, will demonstrate that very concept more than most other actions or words ever will. 

Even the very act of simply Praying for the Blessing and Welfare of A Total Stranger In Need, is 

something that will ultimately end up doing something good for you at some point.

Many people call that 'Karma'. A Famous Man named Jesus said it best like this. Matthew's Gospel. 5: 42.

"Give to him who asks you, and to him who wants to borrow from you, do not turn away."

	I got Blessed today, and Friday I will receive that Blessing. So I will plan on doing likewise, 

for someone else...by Paying It Forward!

Finis.
