** Image ID #1886542 Unavailable ** "Prompt: September 28 is National Good Neighbor Day. Write something about a good neighbor."

A good neighbor is anybody who helps out in an emergency. Jesus told a story in the Bible called a parable. It is found in Luke. In the story a man was walking along a road and was robbed by thieves. They left the man for dead at the side of the road. Three religious people cane by the man and passed him because they did not want to soil their hands. A Samaritan came walking by and did his best to help the man and probably saved the man's life. The thing to remember is that in Jewish culture the Samaritans were despised. They were treated as less than human. So Jesus asked His audience who had been a neighbor in the story.
Neighbors are willing to go the extra mile. The set their own needs aside and concentrate on the needs of others. They are selfless people. They serve because it is the right thing to do.

I really don't know any stories about boys in striped hats. My muse has sort of gom=ne south on me as far as writing short stories is concerned or I may be able to come up with something. I do know a story about a boy in a multicolored coat. It would take a while to tell the story properly but his name was Joseph. He was his father's favorite child. As a result of petty jealousy his brothers sold him to slave traders, who sold him into slavery. He rose through the ranks and became second in command in his land. He met his brothers again when they came to him in need. He forgave them and reconciled with them. This story is found in Genesis.
