Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Gifted Tree Removal


--by MSFriend, posted Apr 5, 2018
My neighbor, recently widowed, told me a great story today. Apparently she had a tree in her yard she was afraid would fall on the house. It was in bad shape and she knew it had to be cut down; she was concerned about the expense, though.

Just two days ago, a young man appeared at her door ready to cut the tree down.When she asked what it would cost, he responded: "I don't want money and I don't want the wood. All I ask is that you pay it forward!" She was so grateful.
