Years later I was in a car crash and had an emergency operation that saved my life. The doctor came in to see how I was doing. After a short chat about overcoming adversities she told me of her life in an orphanage and how a stranger provided the money for an operation. That inspired her to become a doctor. I was amazed... but said nothing.
After she left I asked one of the nurses what that doctor's name was.
She said... "Oh... you mean Dr. Smith... Dr. Karma Smith!!
Good story. Inspirational too.
No.. I've never had that thrill of being in Ohio. I understand that young rich executives drive their Jaguars through there all the time though...
