>A few years back.........my wife received some help, while shopping in a
Mall
, from an elderly gentleman of obvious Japanese decent.......when she tried
to thank him........he said, "Oh.......No!........you cannot thank
me.......you must repay me by helping someone else...........!"
I've always remember that!

This is one of the teachings of Zen (and Taoism, I presume). Repay the
kindness of a stranger ten fold to other strangers. Like a chain letter
but with some actual genuine benefit. Wouldn't the world be a better place
if everyone did this.
Just don't break the chain <G>.
