heading from North Platte to Brady and he was just outside of North Platte.He jumpeu i ad
said,"Thanks for stopping."I said,"No problem,I'm going to Brady about 23 miles up the road,and I'll
take you that far."
As we were conversing,I noticed he smelt of alcohol.I also noticed his wrinkled,sun darkened and
unshaven face,his messy hair and clothes.But what I noticed most was his clear,large,blue eyes.They
say the eyes are the window to the soul,and I believe it,if you look closely,you can pretty much tell the
kind of soul a person has through their eyes.His eyes were almost indexcribable.They were so
spellbinding,not a bit of hate in them.Looking at his very rough appearance,I could tell he'd been down a
very hard road.Somehow,despite the road he had been down,there was no hate in his eyes,only love.
I asked him if he wanted a smoke,and he said yes,so I gave him one,then I let him keep the whole
pack,for which he seemed genuinely grateful.I started asking him where he was from,where he was
heading,whether he had a family,etc.He told me he had been on the road for six days,coming from
Arizona where he had recently had a heart attack and heart surgery.He was pretty much healed up but
couldn't find work.He was heading back to his birthplace of Kansas City,which is where I was born as
well.He said he lost his wife to a brain tumor ten years ago,and that he never had kids because his wife
couldn't have any.We talked the rest of the way,and I had a feeling that there was something about this
guy that I couldn't put my finger on,but it was something special.
Para.1:So we got to Brady and I said,"Well,this is the end of my line."
Para.2 As I mentioned,I told him I was going to give him some money.
