PIG!

This Pig! story comes from either Readers Digest or something similar, and it carries a lesson.

A guy was driving down a winding gravel road, way out in country. This lady comes around the corner from the other direction, somewhat out of control and encroaching a bit on his side.

She sees him and in the flash of an eye, waving a sudden hand out her window, yells at him "PIG! PIG!"

He gives it to her, yelling back "COW! silly COW". Zoom, shes gone.

And feeling very satisfied and smug, not slowing down, knowing she heard him, he enters the corner and runs smack into the pig.

Such a good lesson, right?. Day to day we never know when even the smallest act of human kindness might reveal itself; either to give or receive.

We have to be ready, alert, spontaneous, true. Don't think, don't judge, just do it. And such acts of kindness are time sensitive as we saw in the pig story.

Miss them and they never come back.

BUZZ MATTERS

Great little pig story! Another lesson is... how often we take offense when none was intended.
