An inspiring story out of Haiti.
As most of you know, my in-laws were in the Dominican Republic two weeks ago. While on the return flight my sister in-law sat next to a gentleman from New York who was involved with the aid efforts in Haiti. He had some great and some sad stories.
This one caught my attention:
"Once in Haiti, we encountered a little boy (5 or 6?), who explained he had lost his entire family, in the quake. The little boy was arguing with the border patrol guard. 'I want to get the DR', the boy tried to explain to the guard. Without money and ID, the guard would not let the boy thru. In tears the boy shared his story with this gentleman from New York. The man stated he felt so bad for the boy, and gave him $100 dollars, and a tent and wished the boy well.
The little boy seized the moment and made a break for the border, dodging guards on the way. 'In moves that would make an NFL running back proud', he zigged and zagged and lept onto a moving truck bound for freedom and the Dominican Republic."
I wish him well.:shades:
