Internship

January 13

The publisher came into the city room yelling "whose old Plymouth is that out front?" It was my second day as a student intern at the Westerly (RI) Sun. He escorted me downstairs to remove my car.

Later, Abe, the city editor, lead me to the rear of the building. “You park there,” he said; pointing to a large paved area behind the temple. “ If anybody says anything tell them Abe sent you." Abe was my neighbor that day.

A lawyer asks Jesus, "Who is my neighbor?"
Jesus tells the story of the Good Samaritan and asks; "so which do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?
The lawyer says, "He who showed mercy on him.”

"Then Jesus says, 'Go and do likewise." (Luke 10: 36-37)
