I was parked in front of the mall wiping off my car.I had just come from the car wash

I was parked in front of the mall wiping off my carI had just come from the car wash and was waiting for my wife to get out of work

Coming my way from across the parking lot was what society would consider a bumFrom the looks of him, he had no car, no home, no clean clothes, and no moneyThere are times when you feel generous but there are other times that you just don't want to be botheredThis was one of those “don't want to be bothered times”

“ I hope he doesn't ask me for any money,” I thought

He didn'tHe came and sat on the edge of the pavement in front of the bus stop but he didn't

look like he could have enough money to even ride the busAfter a few minutes he spoke

“That's a very pretty car,” he said

He was in rags but he had an air of dignity around himHis badly-grown blond beard kept more than his face warm

I said, “thanks,” and continued wiping off my carHe sat there quietly as I workedThe expected plea(乞求) for money never cameAs the silence between us widened, something inside said, “ask him if he needs any help” I was sure that he would say “yes” but I held true to the inner voice

“Do you need any help?” I asked

He answered in three simple words that I shall never forgetWe often look for wisdom in great men and womenWe expect it from those of higher learning and achievementsI expected nothing but an outstretched dirty handHe spoke the three words that shook me

“Don't we all?” he said
