So I shared this on my socials last night. I will never know if I got scammed or not, but I feel like it was the right thing to do.
20 dollars. Doesn’t seem like much. Last night, i was driving back from the grocery store and I saw 2 black men, car hazards on, waving a light, and hoping someone would stop. No one did. Dark and rainy and probably dangerous. I stopped. The guy came up to me crying and saying he was out of gas. At first, I lied and said I had no cash. 90% of the time, that would be true. I rarely carry cash. The guy said he was late to get his kids, no one would stop, and he needed a blessing. I don’t know what possessed me. I am anything, but a blessing in any situation. I gave him a 20 dollar bill and wished him a good night. I don’t know if I was scammed. I can’t help, but think i was. It is hard to see the good anymore. Regardless, i could use the good karma these days. I suppose I can’t control what he does, but maybe it is a notch in right column for my soul.
Would you have stopped?
