We all, 'owe', IMO, it to anyone we see in need , to fill whatever part of the need we are able to. Then they 'owe' it to do the same for someone else. Then 'they' now owe it to "Pay It Forward".

I was helped when I needed it last week, by several people. I was blessed enough to meet two homeless people I could then pay some forward to.

It just so happens they are in on the program already, and always help people they see in need. That's why they don't have all that they need for themselves.

So they are also paying me back.

They have fixed things in my house that I don't know how to, and would have had to pay a lot of money to have done.

If we were to all to this, everyone could be alright

I'm good now, thanks to them and all the others who have helped me get back up.

And now a couple more people are getting a helping hand back up on their feet too.
