Yes, I'll Take Your Pennies
After I came out of a store from shopping the other day, I paused at the side of the entrance to organize & put my stuff in there proper place before I went on my way. A guy comes out of the store after having bought some small item then proceeds to throw money to the ground.
Me - Sir, you dropped some money. Don't you want it?
Him - It's on you.
He keeps walking to his car as I go to the money spot and pick up the three pennies he casually discarded. I know it's only three cents and he probably thought that I was a shmuck picking up after him but for me, money is money. I think that if you respect the small amounts, the big amounts will take care of themselves. The saying goes that pennies make dollars and I'm all into making dollars. I will not be able to buy a mansion, but I hope the universe will see that I am willing to be a good steward of all the money that comes into my life and hopefully give me more. He was not driving a fancy car so I hope he has his financial house in order. When that young guy gets older, he may understand my thinking.
Peace.
B.O.P.
