The other day I was driving my new Range Rover. I had just had it detailed, and my custom rims were sparkling in the sun. I pulled up to my favorite boutique and found a spot right next to a homeless person. He looked at me and said, "Nice car, man."
I thought that this was remarkable. Here was a man who didn't know where his next meal was coming from. Here was a man who was probably routinely ravaged at the local shelter. A man with important issues that required his full attention, and yet he took the time to compliment me on my car.
I thought about what I could give him in return. My wallet was stuffed with money. I had the leftovers from a gourmet restaurant on my front seat. I had clothes from last season in the back of my car that I was taking to the landfill. I thought about all of these possibilities. But then I looked at his dirty face and saw his smile and I realized that just letting him look at my car had already given him great joy. What worldly goods could compare?
