What goes around comes around, as the saying goes, and for this homeless man who acted out of compassion, he was rewarded when he least expected it.

Ron is a homeless man from Salt Lake City, Utah, and as he was sitting near a freeway exit with a sign asking for work or help, Angel Janes drove past on her way home. She felt compelled to stop, and although she had neither a job nor money to offer him, she gave him a cigarette. Wrapped tightly in a blanket in his arms was a tiny dog—a Chihuahua. Angel struck up a conversation with Ron and asked him about the dog.
