Good Karma
When entering a hotel (where she and her husband were staying), Gladys, a devout Baptist, noticed a shabbily dressed man lounging idly in front of the newspaper stand in the lobby. She noticed that several men stopped to talk to him and gave him a little money. He seemed so cheered by the encounters. She impulsively put $10 in an envelope, wrote “God Bless” on the outside and handed it to him.
The next day, the man stopped her on the street. “Here’s your $250,” he said, cheerily. “God Bless won, 25 to 1!”
