the courage to give

Sunday morning 8am. While waiting at a traffic light at a desolate street, a homeless man came up to my car with a sign asking for help. Alone and afraid, I drove past him without lending a hand.As I drove farther down the street, I felt terrible to not help due to fear. I dug into my wallet, made a U-turn, and drove by where he was standing. “Have a nice day!” I gave him the money and drove off feeling much more at peace.
