twenty dollars
Walked home today from the BART station today.
Gave a stranger twenty dollars. Not sure why.
I guess that, just in that moment, I felt fortunate enough to have the money for leisure, and so that I was obligated to share. I always have a sense of doubt for when opportunity arises for me to do good will like this, but honestly, how much does twenty dollars compare to all the archery equipment I've bought throughout this semester? And how much is twenty dollars worth compared to the vast riches and glory of God's kingdom?
The more I think about it, the more I think I made the right choice, whether I made a positive impact or not. I guess I need to constantly remind myself the meaning of compassion every once in a while.
