Have you ever had something bad happen, while you were actually trying to do something good?
It’s kind of that old phrase – no good deed goes unpunished.
There was a thread about this online. This is what one person wrote:
“I ran in the middle of a busy road to rescue a kitten. I went door to door until I finally found the owner. The first thing she did when she saw me holding her kitten was accuse me of stealing it. Every single animal I've ever rescued I've either been ignored or yelled at for trying to return. One guy yelled at me to get off his property despite the fact I was holding his lost cat.”
When something like this happens, it just doesn’t seem fair. You go out of your way to do something nice, and somehow you’re the bad guy.
My guest today is Cesar. Cesar is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. But there was this one time when he was trying to help someone. And he almost lost his life because of it.
If you’d like to contact Cesar, his website is: https://CesarCardona.com
