Careful.....this is a litmus test into your character.
The seemingly simple question, "What would you do?" Is actually a glimpse inside your soul.
Those saying, The cops a chump, or the wife was right, or he didn't owe the waitress, or awful movie.
Deserve grief, and miserly penny pinching lives.
The ones who got it. Those touched by the story, by the kindness, the honor and grace, will never have the poverty of the soul, the wife dwells in. Great story. In fact a parable.
I hope the story touched you. That you are the 2nd group.
