A Changed Heart

There was a man named Carlton, who came from a rural town. He was well-liked by all within his community, he was the town judge. Everyone gave him much respect. However, he had another group that he was the founder and head chair of. This group was a close group that didn't allow outsiders. They didn't accept anyone that didn't look and act like them. On a dark and stormy night, Carlton had a bad car accident. He was banged up real bad; he lost a lot of blood. And he needed a blood transfusion STAT. He also had a heart condition, so he was on the top of the heart transplant waiting list. It was touch and go for Carlton; they didn't know if he would live long enough to receive a new heart. But in the nick of time, they found him a heart. A month later, he was released from the hospital. As time went by, his family and friends started to notice significant changes. From the food he ate, the music he listened to. But the most significant change was his new friends. He started hanging around with “ Them.” Carlton resigned as founder and the head chair of the group he was apart of immediately. Carlton had a change of heart two ways on that life-altering day.
