Have you ever had something bad happen, while you were
actually trying to do something good?
It’s kind of that old phrase – no good deed goes unpunished.
There was a thread about this online. This is what one
person wrote:
“I ran in the middle of a busy road to rescue a kitten. I
went door to door until I finally found the owner. The first thing she did when
she saw me holding her kitten was accuse me of stealing it. Every single animal
I've ever rescued I've either been ignored or yelled at for trying to return.
One guy yelled at me to get off his property despite the fact I was holding his
lost cat.”
When something like this happens, it just doesn’t seem fair.
You go out of your way to do something nice, and somehow you’re the bad guy.
My guest today is Cesar. Cesar is one of the nicest people
I’ve ever met. But there was this one time when he was trying to help someone.
And he almost lost his life because of it.
If you’d like to contact Cesar, his website is: https://CesarCardona.com

216: Rachel rescued her children
Many years ago, I had a small pickup truck. It was kind of a
junker.
Mostly, I just used it for when I had some stuff to haul to
the town dump. It wasn’t pretty but it mostly served my purposes.
But this little truck had a problem. It would constantly
overheat.
Even in the cold Maine winter, I would have to keep an eye
on that temperature gauge to be aware of when the engine got too hot. And
sometimes when it showed that it was getting really hot, I’d have to just pull
over, let it cool down, and then maybe add some coolant to the radiator – once
it was cooled down enough for me to remove the cap.
It was an inconvenience sometimes, but I never felt like I
was in danger with it.
My guest today is Rachel. And she experienced something
similar. Except in her case, she was on a bridge with no breakdown lane. And
her two babies were with her.
And her car did way more than just overheat.
