Joe Wilson resides in Glasgow, Scotland. Every Saturday morning, he takes a leisurely walk in the park before eating breakfast at his favorite cafe, Old Salty’s. Daniel, a homeless man who sells reduced publications, is always near the entrance.
After breakfast, Joe often exchanged a few words with the homeless man and, if possible, gave him a couple of pounds. And with the onset of cold weather, he began to treat Daniel to hot coffee.
Joe Wilson, as usual, went to the cafe for breakfast one Saturday. When he asked for the bill, the waitress said it had already been paid for. Perplexed, Joe went outdoors, where he watched Daniel’s face light up with joy.
The homeless man had purchased an instant lottery ticket the day before, winning 20 pounds. He made the decision to please the man who had always been there for him. Wilson’s habits led him to pay for his usual Saturday brunch at Old Salty’s.
The touched man spoke about the incident on his Facebook page. He asked people who would pass by Daniel to buy a magazine from him or just say hello to him and smile.
This is how good always returns a hundredfold to the one who did it.
