Twenty years ago, on a stormy night, Celia made a split-second decision
to help a stranger, James, offering him food, dry clothes, and a place to
stay when he was at rock bottom. She never expected to see him again.Years later,
James, now successful, shows up at her door. He hands her the deed to a house,
telling her that her kindness saved his life. After the night she helped him,
James found a shelter, got back on his feet, went to college,
and started his own business. He now funds shelters and scholarships, and has spent
years trying to repay the kindness she showed him.Celia never expected anything in return.
But James’ success, fueled by that one act of kindness, brought him back to give her
a home—and to remind her that sometimes, life’s greatest gifts come wrapped in storms.
