He was living on the lake in a tent.He was dying of alcoholism and looked very scarey.Still, I saw somthing in his eyes and I knew I had to help him.I found out he used to be in a band and he had pawned his guitar.I had the guitar my friend had left me in my car. I handed it to him and ask him to play. To my overwhelming surprise, his cracked and dirty fingers rolled over the strings playing the most beautiful music I had ever heard,accompanied with the voice of an angel,totally on key. Tears uncontrolably rolled down my face. It took all my efforts, but I got him into a half-way house. After staying drunk for 40 years, he's been sober going on 5 years, and he's about to start his own business,still playing on the side. He's one of my best friends, now.(alot like my friend I lost) My question is,"was this 'fate' or is there another name for the series of events that took place?"
