An Invisible Thread

The inspiring true story of Maurice and me. We met on 56th street in Manhattan in 1986, when I was a 35-year-old single ad sales executive, and he was an 11-year-old homeless panhandler. He asked me for spare change; I said no and kept walking. But something made me stop, and turn around, and go back to him, and that day changed my life and Maurice’s too.
