Here's Your Friday Feel Good Story

Sometimes situations present themselves that just make you feel good. Last night as we were leaving for home, a young woman found a wallet on the sidewalk in front of our store. She didn't quite know what to do with it, so she presented it to us and we said we would attempt to find the owner. There was a driver's license but no phone number and so, internet to the rescue, we found his current address and a phone number. I was able to reach him by phone but he did not speak English. The word money seems to carry through to all languages and so I was able to let him know that his wallet was at our store.
He presented himself at our door right as we opened, in his electric scooter and we were able to re-unite him with his wallet. Thank you is another word that seems to carry through. He needed that wallet and it's good to know that there are still people that are honest, like this young woman.....it feels good.
