Story of the Day

There was a man who meets a homeless fellow and takes him to a restaurant and offers him anything he wants. The poor man requests a baked apple and eats it with excitement to the last drop, immensely grateful. The other man has a long business drive ahead of him that night. It's raining hard. His car skids. The next thing he knows he re-awakens in the home of kind strangers who are nursing him back to health after his accident. He's OK, his life has been spared. They bring him something to eat. The lady of the house shows what she's brought on the tray, "I hope you like baked apple." FROM SMALL MIRACLES

I was reminded by this story by this post by Susan/Shoshana on We Will Be Like Dreamers.
