Tonight, i was rushing about get the last few prezzies. Going to cash point, i drew out what was left of my wages so that when i picked up lilun we could go food shopping together which id promised her. On getting to my sis to pick lilun up...i noticed my purse had gone. Retraced all steps around town but it had gone. Reported it to the police but didnt hold out much hope. Went home feeling really low, knowing i didnt even have basics such as bread and milk let alone goodies. Anyway, about an hour later the police rang to say could i come in. Some amazing person had found my purse and handed it in, contents intact. That small gesture of honesty touched me so much to the point of crying. i have had one hell of a shit year and losing the purse was the icing on the cake. To find that a stranger has more integrity and honesty towards me than certain one who were once close to me had me sobbing. i took some goodies around to him to say thank you, he couldnt see what all the fuss was about especially when i sobbed once more........he doesnt know me, he doesnt know how my life has been.....yet his one act of kindness gave me such strength that there is a lot of good people in this world....some are strangers

I'm so glad you got your purse back, and intact! Part of me is surprised and another part says " So? You would."
I could not take (and then take pleasure from) something that did not belong to me. My wishes of the season to you ...and the same wishes to your 'Samaritan' ... There are a few good people ..... We only ever hear about the bad ones. xxxxxxx The next best thing to playing and winning is playing and losing. |
