Please read important(most people are good)


So today I am going to pick up my heavy coat over 60 miles away. Talk about anxiety! The story goes: I went to see a movie up north. We don't have a theater close by. Anyhow it gets better. I left my coat in the theater. Bear w me. I got a brainstorm! I called the nearest grocery store to see if someone could by & get it. The best part is that someone cared enough to go get it for me. The kicker is of course that I offered a reward for the return. Just for their trouble. So I can rest easy today knowing I did the right thing. I really feel that God gave me an intuitive thought.

I believe in these kinds of events because I have had them also and seen others rewarded by them too.  There are many in the program and outside of it that feel the need to share generosity and express empathy that cause me to do the same.  Mahalo smilewink
