I lost my bag when I went out.
I was not feeling well and went out to consult a specialist.I had a handbag, an ordinary bag and an ethnic looking one [made of ordinary cloth but bought specially from some tourist destination.].I thought I can buy some essentials if the duration at the doctor's permitted. THe doctor was not there.So, I had to return immediately. I bought some fruits and American corn and kept this in the ethnic, beautiful bag.THankfully, my ATM card and 1000 rupees were in another handbag.Now, I did not have change to pay the autorickshaw man and I had to fish out small change right on the main road. Once again I had to buy some more small items on the roadside fruit shop and after coming back I realised that the ethnic bag with some fruits and corn, was not to be found.I felt terribly guilty and sad.When I was going to the doctor I was feeling slightly tired and down, but after some time I just felt like walking across the road and that is why I came walking a reasonable distance. .If it is a valuable item we would feel miserable but this was not of great value it made me feel guilty .Well, I do feel that I should have been more careful.But I still cannot understand how it happened.

Thank you for the participation.You must have felt quite bad at that point of time but, nevertheless, you must have taken it as lesson to be more careful in fuTURE.I am very thankful,that I did not let go of the purse with my credit card in it.THat would have been a real hassle.

Here we have a phrase for that so I understand why you might feel guilty even though the bag did not have extreme value. We call it a "wake-up call" which means that we have to be more careful because next time it could be something of greater value--or the key to the front door! When we lose something we should have taken better care of it makes us think we could as easily have tripped over a stone and fallen, or forgotten to put air in the tires or gas in the car, or if we have a puppy or a kitten, we could have forgotten to leave a dish of water, and gone out the door. It is disconcerting.

Exactly.yOU haveexcellently out it as a 'wake up call.'TOday, I had to go out again and I was doubly careful.THanks a lot for the wonderful response.

I went back to the market nearby to see if I had left it behind at the fruit shop Tamara. .It is most likely that I lost it in the autorickshaw.I don't feel guilty any longer but the niggling sense of wariness is there in me . Today, I had to go out for a blood test nad I was doubly careful.

Hi Kala!
It is really bad to know that you lost your bag, specially when you were going somewhere and unwell. I think we should always remain alert and careful, when carrying bag etc., while going out. Our little carelessness could cost us a lost. The other day, my wife was travellng in a bus carrying here bigger purse and a a smaller purse in it. The bus was not very crowded and she had to travel a distance of hardly 2-3 kilometers. However, when she came home she reliased that her smaller purse has been stolen (apparently by a lady in the bus, who was standing near her). She lost her Idenity Card, Metro Rail card and some other important documents.


myLot reputation of 92/100. dpk262006 (9124)   ranked 675 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

Pl. bear with me, there are some typo errors, due to some problems in the PC.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

Losing some small cash.a purse are even okay compared to losing id card, credit card/atm card and in thsi case you wife has lost her metro card and some documents.POor thing! She must have been terribly upset.And what did you do when she wailed at home?Did you give her words of comfort saying 'leave it' or mild advice about how people shpuld be careful while going out?wink If you had done it then I can well believe thta joke in mimpi's dreams forum. lol

I wrote it all in jest.Do not mistake me.


myLot reputation of 92/100. dpk262006 (9124)   ranked 675 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

Hi Kala!
Yes, when I reached home from my office, I came to know about the incident and apparently she was very upset. I comforted her and told her to be careful in future. There was no point in getting angry or annoyed, because what had to happen had happened and it could not have been 'redone' (I normally do not lose temper on suh incidents). Soon after reaching home, I drafted an FIR and we both went to Police Station to lodge FIR, because her office Identity card was lost and this must be informed to Police, so that it could not be misused.
If this incident had happened with me, she would have definitely thrashed me and gave me a long lecture telling me that "you are always careless and you are a absent minded fellow and you always do like this.[em]lol[/em]"
Deepak
There is no point misunderstanding your intention about that JOke on Mimpidreams. lol


myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

Then I should say that you are more lenient and considerate than your wife Deepak. I withdraw my misplaced sympathy and I transfer it to you. lollol


myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

But I have one small suggestion to make.Tell me if I am allowed to say it.I will write it or guess it.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

sorry typo-I meant 'you guess it'.


myLot reputation of 92/100. dpk262006 (9124)   ranked 675 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

Hi Kala!
Yes, you can say I am more lenient than she islol. Thanks for transferring the sympathy to melol.
Please don't feel shy to share your suggestion, you are most welcome, you can mail your suggestion to me (I could not guess what it could be).

I am sorry you lost your lovely bag.

I had my purse stolen at MacDonald’s when I took my daughter there for dinner. I was devastated because I had a fortnight’s pay in it that I just withdrew. It was so unfortunate because I hardly ever carry more than twenty bucks in my purse except for this day. The awful thing is that I had my bag on the chair right next to me and the purse was taken out of it while I was answering a text message; I have no idea how it was done without me noticing.

I got the purse back after it was dumped at a gas station across the road from the restaurant minus the cash and the credit cards of course!

I felt so violated and guilty for being so careless and losing money we could not afford to lose!

myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

I can well understand how terrible you would have felt. You would have felt really miserable and I won't be surprised if you had even been in tears. I was yesterday; though the bag is not very costly, it was a useful and beautiful bag. We feel so guilty as to how we could have been so absorbed in something else with our purse being stolen right in front [literally]of our nose.And a fortnight's pay --this is really terrible.THis is more accentuated because you normally don't carry much.What to do? I finally pacify myself that it could have been worse and this is relatively insignificant[in my case].


myLot reputation of 100/100. paula27661 (5569)   ranked 315 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

I was in tears. My husband was working away at the time and I phoned him crying. He immediately thought something had happened to our daughter and was quite relieved when he heard my story. He made me see that there are worse things that can happen he said, "Can you imagine how much worse it would be if our baby had been hit by a car or something?" As soon as he made the comment, I dried my tears and felt thankful that all that was gone was just my purse and some cash. It was not a nice incident but it helped to put it in perspective.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

That was sweet of your husband and all sensible husbands would tak that way if the loss is significant.And this is how they pacify the women too. When we think this way, then things definitely fall in perspective and these things are more serious than loss of money.[much more traumatic]

Yes, I lost my money, not outside, but inside our boarding house. It was terrible and I cried hard because that was my hard earned money and that was budgeted for my house rental, my heart sunk when I learned that it was lost inside my room and I cannot accused my board mates since I have no evidence, I was not in a good mood for the whole month and it seemed I was traumatized because I am now afraid to leave even my bag inside our house.

Then few months ago my jean was stolen, it was another round of trauma and shock because that was stolen inside our boarding house again. It was so bad, I felt so betrayed and it seems nobody can be trusted anymore. Right now, I just couldn't leave my room without being locked, even if I will just take a bath or eat downstairs, I will make sure I locked the door in my room.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

You poor thing! I feel sorry for you and it would almost become a phobia.To steal a pair of jeans// atrocious. In the course of such events we get so disillusioned and disappointed with human beings.THANKS a lot for sharing and I hope and pray this stops with this jeans.May all your possessions be safe, by God'd grace!

yes, once i lost my purse which contained my mobile, money, cosmetics books etc and i did not got it back bcoz the person who got it, took the card out of the mobile and we didnt got our things ever back. that was a very bad day for us. we tried and tried to contact on our number but no use...it was too late.
we lost it in a book fair,much crowd held there and we were also enjoying the fair rather taking care more of our things and bags.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

Then you would have felt guilty for having enjoyed yourself so much without paying due care to your things.It is perrible that people have to lift things at the slightest opportunity but the world is made up of all sorts of people.Sad indeed1

Hi dear,

What happened to you, were you absent minded that time, you kept the same somewhere and forgot to take it back. Anyway it was a sad incident. I have lost money from bag once in bus and once we were in a park and there was much rush. Both time I didn’t realized and later knows that I lost money. Don’t worry much please take care next time.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

NO Sree .I was not absent minded .It was on the main road and the rickshaw man was right where the bus stop is.I got a bit nervous of delaying him and becasue he did not cooperate in offering me change for Rs50, I had to pick small change in the denomination of 1 and 2 for Rs 14 . In this process I got into a hurry because it was the main road. I had two bags + a handbag and this fabric bag must have slipped off my hand and fallen or I just don't know.I did not even have enough time to peep into the rickshaw and rushed out. Anyhow, it is destined to be with someone else.I am thankful that I did not lose the thousand in the handbag and my Atm card.

Yes. I once lost my wallet on a taxi. I was getting off. I took out the money purse to the driver. When I put the money packed into the pockets of the body, when loaded into the open space went. It slipped inside the car. But I did not notice. I thought my wallet was installed OK, then I got out. Want to go to pharmacies to buy medicine to pay until it was discovered that there is no wallet. I am very depressed. Is also very distressed. Because there are ID cards. And my photos. There are a month's salary. However,lost,on be brought back. Since then I have to do everything very carefully. Do not allow yourself to regret things.


myLot reputation of 95/100. kalav56 (1948)   ranked 508 out of 35,455 in people  5 months ago

Your experience is a bad thing .I feel bad about having been careless enough to not have noticed the missing bag.Today, I went put and I took another bag with Zip and was doubly careful while checking my purse inside.As someone had rightly pointed out we can only take lessons from here and not worry too much.What is done cannot be undone.Thanks a lot for sharing.
