You faith in humanity is it intact?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 79/100. Lindalinda (3181) 6 years ago

I have received a big boost to my faith in humanity. Last Saturday I was returning from a class in Webdesign. I had my textbook, homework and a personal notebook in a cloth bag. I was very upset since the instructor was so rude to me. I had missed the first class of an intermediate course and could not keep up with his pace. He was very impatient with me. So when I entered the subway I was so upset. I had to change trains and as I got off one train I realized I had left my cloth bag behind, but the doors were already closing and the train sped off. The most upsetting thing was my that my personal notebook with lots of personal information such as my name etc. and phone numbers of friends (some unlisted)were in that book. I could easily replace the text book but evil people could make use of the personal information. I spent a very worried week-end and phoned the lost and found as soon as it opened on Monday morning. No bag was turned in. My worries increased because of the notebook. Today I was on the subway again. On impulse I stopped at the lost and found office. I showed them a similar cloth bag which I had with me and asked them to check for my lost one. I laughed and screamed for joy when the man returned to the counter after a long while and brought me my lost bag. Everything was still in it including the note book. There are some good and decent people out there even in a big city. Has anyone had a similar experience?

I think that we should show kindness and compassion to everyone. I went to the post office today. As I was going across the parking lot, I picked up a large nail close to a lady's tire. She smiled at me and held the door for me as I went in. As I was leaving, I saw a ladt struggling to carry a bunch of boxes. I helped her carry them. Let us help to make this a better world.
