An Interesting exercise

So today when I went to lunch I happened to ponder how next pay check is pretty much going to go to my bills. And it was pretty aggravating but I'm not complaining TOO loudly since I know I'm more fortunate then alot of people without jobs or making less and struggling. I feel for you all I promise. But I was thinking how amazingly great it would be to win the lottery. But then I thought about the movie Thomas Crown Affair where he needed to know that he wasn't wanted just for his money. And I thought about all my friends and loved ones. And started mentally giving them money in particular amounts by how much they meant to me and how wonderful of a person they really are. Cause mentally I won lthe big one. Like 400mil. And then I thought about God. And was about to go I want to give like 500K dollers to some church. But then I remembered I have hard issues about the church itself and thought what would God want me to really do. And then it came to me. To split the 500K into 100 doller bills. And as I live my life to give people the 100 doller bills one at a time to random people who were nice to me or nice to other for no reason then just to have a good heart and be a good person. I think of all those people in the world that probably could make a difference but no one was willing to give them a chance or they had no oppertunity or help like I've been given from the love of friends and family all through my life. Would it make the world a better place? Probably not, but could it? Maybe. Maybe one of those people that 100 dollar bill makes all the difference of them living their life as is and their life as someone who cures cancer or something world impactful. The feeling of knowing my siblings or parents who took care of me all my life and stood by me when I thought no one would never know want again. To know they would live a comfortable life and pursue the dreams they've always had. And to my friends that provided me with the love, inspiration and support that anyone would be honored to be called friend to give them a little something to say thank you and to help them continue their love to others. What a feeling to know that love, friendship, and caring would be rewarded, that would be the world I would want to live in.
