Hey everyone, well today I had to head up to Sangre Grande where I work to sign an appraisal (which ended up being very good). So I arrived at the grand bazar lights to see an old lady around 62 asking for donations. Actually, I didn't know she was asking for donations since my tint is a bit dark and I was listening to some Saosin songs very loudly with my windows up. Only when she passed by the car, I realised she was waiting to see if I would give her something. She ended up going by another car in which the same thing happened and I saw this and only then I realised and felt very convicted in my heart... so I took out an undiclosed sum of money to give to her (thinking that if my grandmother was having problems, I'd hope some good person would help her). Anyways, the light changed and I didn't get the chance to give her the money. The money sat on my lap there for another 20-30 minutes and I think I got great revelation from this situation.

In life, we always get the opportunity to do good, to be a blessing to others, to be that hero in someone's life... but even good opportunities can be lost in seconds.... I got the opportunity today to help someone and I didn't do it in time and lost the opportunity be great. I realised that I need to open my eyes even more wider to help those that need help, to help the helpless... and so should you :)
