Paying it forward

As you recall, I did my little fundraising drive a few months ago, and was really pleased at how many of you contributed to that fund.  I’ve had the money sitting in PayPal since then, because it actually is a little challenging to divert it to the account I generally use.  I’m now very glad that I was dilatory.

You see, someone I know is facing one of those big life crises that all of us pray won’t happen to us or to anyone near or dear to us.  Because the attendant expenses are great, and because so many people offered to help fund this friend in need, he set up a PayPal account.  I clicked over, and was able to pour a substantial portion of the money that you gave me directly into this person’s account without even going outside of PayPal.  I felt good helping him out, and I felt really good that all of you did too.

So — THANK YOU!
