I was talking to a friend last night who said that they wanted to help me out with a problem that I had. I told them thank you and how much I had appreciated it. They said I know you and know this really hurts you to except help, but it’s no problem I’m just glad I’m able to help you. I received a text from them earlier while I was training that said they would take care of it in about an hour.

As soon as I finished training I went to the bank. When getting ready to park I noticed a Mercedes just sitting in front of other cars that were parked. I thought to myself are they about to park, if so why are they just sitting there and not taking the park that was right in front of me? I sat there for a moment and they never moved. So, I took the park. As soon as I was about 95% in the park I felt my car rock and heard a Boom! and crunch,crunch. They had backed into me at a pretty good speed.

I looked over and noticed that they were pulling up and immediately thought are they about to leave? They had only pulled up to park. Once I got out of my car an Old lady opened the door stuck half her body out and said “am I alright”. I looked at my car saw the black marks, scratches and paint peeled off and just laughed. I told her it was ok. She got out of her and walked into the bank. People in the drive through were looking in awe shaking their heads as if they couldn’t believe she had just hit me like that.

I pulled my car into the rest of the park and sent a text to a friend telling them what had just happened. Then I immediately called the friend who was going to help, and they answered in a down voice saying I just got pulled over and am about to get a ticket. I said make sure you are nice, smile, apologize, and ask if you can get a warning. They said I probably already messed that up, because he has already taken my license and is sitting in his car. I said try anyway and they said ok I’ll call you back. I immediately started texting them other instructions on what they should do.

After I finished texting them I call another one of my friends. I told them that the old lady better be glad I wasn’t one of these people out here only for money because I was coming to the bank to get a copy of my statement to review it. They said well I’m sorry because if it was me I would have got them! I said well you know I’m not into cars and stuff and one day I might need someone to give me the same grace on something and it might be a bigger thing. I also said just like gravity what goes up will come down. It’s a law in the same way we will all reap what we sow good and the bad. But, we often forget that because it doesn’t always come right after we do something. They said you are right and we got off of the phone.

As soon as I hung up the other friend was calling me back. When I answered they were in a loud excited voice saying you won’t believe what had just happened! The police just ran to my car gave me my license and said this must be your lucky day and ran back to his car and sped off. They said it must have been something more important Thank You Lord!! That was going to be a high ticket I was going really fast in a 35 zone. Then in an excited voice said I’ll call you back my heart is beating so fast. When I talked to them later they said earlier they were on their way to take care of that thing for me. I can’t say that it was because they were doing a good deed that they didn’t get that expensive ticket, but I can’t say that it wasn’t the reason either!!

Thanks again to the friend!!!!!!
