A man was driving home one evening on a two-lane country road. Jobs, in this small, mid-western community, were very difficult to search But he never quit looking. Ever since the factory closed, he'd been unemployed. With winter coming, the cold had finally hit home.
It was a lonely road. Not very many people had a reason to be on it, unless they were leaving, Most of his friends had already left. They had families to feed and dreams to fulfill. But he stayed on. After all, this was where he buried his mother and father. He was born here and knew the country. He could go down this road blind, and tell you what was on either side, and with his headlights not working, that came in handy.
It was starting to get dark and light snow was coming down. He'd better get a move on. You know, he almost didn't see the old lady, wandering on the side of the road. But even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her and got out.
Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn't look safe, and he looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt. It was that cold that only fear can put in you. He said, “I'm here to help you ma'am. Why don't you wait in your car where it's warm? By the way, my name is Joe. ”
