A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street,
going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar.
He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed
down when he thought he saw something.
As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the
Jag’s side door!
He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick
had been thrown.
The angry driver then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and
pushed him up against a parked car shouting, "What was that all about and
who are you? Just what the heck are you doing? That’s a new car and that
brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?"
The young boy was apologetic. "Please, mister…please, I’m sorry but I
didn’t know what else to do,"
He pleaded.
I threw the brick because no one else would stop…" With tears dripping
down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around
a parked car.
"It’s my brother," he said."He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair
and I can’t lift him up."
Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, "Would you please help
me get him back into his wheelchair? He’s hurt and he’s too heavy for me."
Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump
in his throat. He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair,
then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh scrapes and cuts.
A quick look told him everything was going to be okay.
>"Thank you and may God bless you," the grateful child told the stranger.
>Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy push his wheelchair-bound
>brother down the sidewalk toward their home It was a long, slow walk back
>to the Jaguar.
>The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair
>the dented side door. He kept the dent there to remind him of this message

>"Don’t go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you
